For fans of Lucy Score and Colleen Hoover, a heart-wrenching contemporary romance about a young woman with a traumatic past who falls for the single dad next door. I was eighteen, he was thirty-one.

Wild Flowers Every Child Should Know
Author: Frederic William Stack
Publisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9780265244159
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 484
Book Description
Excerpt from Wild Flowers Every Child Should Know: Arranged According to Color With Reliable Descriptions of the More Common Species of the United States and Canada The flowers are divided first, according to colour, then, according to natural classification. Since flowers are exceedingly variable in colour, and in no case constant, it is difficult to arrive at their true colour value; and, besides, most persons have their own ideas regarding colours. Purple, for instance, ranges from lightest to darkest blue, but is more or less generally understood to be a reddish blue, and it is largely a matter of qualifying its shade. Therefore, the simple primary colours have been selected as a basis, and the flowers have been arbitrarily divided into Red, Pink, Yellow and Orange, Greenish and White, and Blue and Purple groups. The student is thus enabled to turn immediately to the group of any particular flower he may desire, according to its dominating colour, without searching through an indefinite mass of descriptive matter. A small magnifying glass will reveal wonders as remarkable as those of fairyland. Such a glass, together with a few needles and a sharp penknife for dissecting the specimens, makes a satisfactory outfit for general study. A small note - book for records and a tin collecting box are also strongly recommended. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
