"We need to tell you something Lily!" they buzzed. "It's about the wildflowers ..."
 
Lily Katinka thinks she is the most beautiful flower in Dudley's garden. But she's rather worried because Dudley has allowed the end of the lawn to grow wild, and it seems so untidy! 
 
Adding to her dismay, the 'ugly weeds and scruffy grasses' are getting a lot of attention from the bees and the butterflies. 
 
What is so special about the bottom of the garden? Lily Katinka has to find out ... 
 
Perfect for children and families who love a heartwarming and beautifully illustrated story about the hidden world of wildflowers in the garden.

This edition features an author's note filled with surprising details about bees - for example, did you know that honey bees make a special food out of pollen called bee bread?
 
The first book in the award-winning Dudley's Garden series, with On the Top of Dudley's Pond and In the Middle of Dudley's Log Pile. WINNER of the Golden Wizard Book Prize 2023
