Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Lanie's backyard wildflower garden she planted with her aunt is starting to bloom with all the flowers that butterflies like best! She is delighted, but Lanie's next-door neighbor objects - she says that Lanie is growing an ugly "weed garden." As Lanie searches for ways to spread the word about the benefits of natural gardening, she is horrified to discover the neighbor using pesticides that could hurt the butterflies and birds nesting in the garden. Can Lanie find a creative solution to her problem?
"2"--Spine.
Ten-year-old Lanie's wildflower garden is thriving and attracting butterflies to her Cambridge, Massachusetts, backyard, but a neighbor not only objects to her growing "weeds," she also uses harmful chemicals on her own plants.
