Uplifting Life Changing

For pure exhilaration and drama, there's nothing quite like sports: it's the crack of the bat as it connects with the baseball, hurtling it into the bleachers for a home run; the swish of the basketball as it drops into the net for a three-point play at the buzzer; the roar of the crowd as the quarterback delivers a perfect spiral pass for the winning touchdown. Most importantly, sports bring out the best in the human spirit.

For beginning gardeners and veteran green-thumbs, this uplifting collection of stories is filled with what every gardener knows: gardens fill lives with a special richness because they are a living reminder of the beauty in the world.
