By Kathi Appelt Pictures by Joy Fisher Hein
Step into the beautiful, blooming world of a First Lady who helped plant a brighter future for America. Growing up in the quiet woods of East Texas, young Lady Bird Johnson found her greatest friends among the colorful wildflowers. Bluebonnets, black-eyed Susans, and larkspurs greeted her wherever she explored. Years later, when she moved into the White House, she never forgot the joy those blossoms brought her. She decided to share that magic with the entire country. You will discover how Lady Bird led a movement to clean up city streets and plant vibrant flowers along the nation's highways so that every child could experience the splendor of nature. This inspiring true story shows how one person's love for the outdoors blossomed into a lasting environmental legacy that we still enjoy today.
