About this deal
Written by Hilary Robinson ad Martin Impey The book, a work of fiction based on fact, has been published in partnership with The Lost Gardens of Heligan and is a stunning, highly illustrated story about the gardeners and outdoor staff of the estate who enlisted following the outbreak of World War 1. They remember. The carefree childhood for Ben and his best friend Ray becomes a distant memory when they join the army to serve their country. They grieve. Published to mark the centenary of the start of the First World War and in homage to the war poets Where The Poppies Now Grow, written in rhyme with powerful illustrations, is a touching tribute to honour all those who sacrificed so much for peace.
