Dent-de-Lion: A Misunderstood Plant Tale - Paperback

by Kathy Tiernan (Illustrator), Dorian B. Yates (Author)

Dent-de-Lion
Join little French Dent-de-lion, also known as Dandelion, as she is helped to see her true strengths by her cousins, Daisy and Sunflower

Dent-de-Lion is the second in the Misunderstood Plant Tales series.

Language about "invasive" plants sets a dangerous precedent for ourselves, our children and the planet, blaming the plants
and earth for trying to heal and course-correct from our poor decisions.

The Misunderstood Plants commonly referred to as "invasives" (also known as outsider, alien, intruder, enemy,
and evil) are misunderstood, underrated, undervalued and demonized.

If the plants could speak our language they would tell us that they identify as: Tenacious, Vigorous, Protective, Determined,
Powerful, Persistent, Eager, Generous, Friendly, Helpful, and Big‐Hearted. They would ask us to think differently-to open
our eyes and explore what they are offering us and the earth.

Join Dent-de-Lion-and the others in the Misunderstood Plant Tales: Woad, Mrs. Knotweed, The Three Artemisias, Kudzu,
and Little Barberry-on their adventures with their friends as they make their way through adversity with
appreciation, understanding and love.
