illustrated personal journal.. [T]he paintings are beautifully
done. Any reader who read this book and then visited Bhutan would
immediately recognize these plants if he or she were lucky enough
to happen upon them.. If you enjoy gorgeous botanical illustrations
or gentle musings on small daily events, you will like this book."
- Judith Whitcomb, Biodiversity
