Summary

In official partnership with Kew Gardens.

It's 1916, and England is at war. Desperate to help in whatever way they can, Ivy and Louisa enlist as gardeners at Kew, taking on the jobs of the men who have gone to fight. Under their care, the gardens begin to flourish - but Ivy and Louisa aren't being treated fairly, and not everyone wants them there. Without women's rights, the pair begins to struggle - but can the support of the Suffragettes help their cause? And when a tragedy overseas affects the people closest to them, can the women of Kew pull together to support themselves and their country through the darkest of times? 

A heartwarming historical novel about women in wartime, inspired by real-life events.

An enjoyable read.

I loved the story and I found it interesting to learn about the lives of women during the first world War and the suffragette movement.

This book is beautiful, and read with such conviction that it felt like i was part of the story. I was sad to reach the end!
