Answer 2

The climate along the Atlantic Coast of the USA is good for the growth of different plants. You can find a great variety of them, including some that grow well in Russia, such as snowdrops, forget-me-nots, and pansies. Lenore E. Mulets, an American writer, was very fond of nature and she wrote wonderful children's books about animals, birds, and flowers. Her books were quite different from other children's books as they gave advice, for example, on how to cultivate flowers and how to look after them. She also illustrated her stories with beautiful pictures.

The main hero in her books, Phyllis, loved flowers, talked about them, took care of them, could be angry with them, and learned their secrets. As a result, flowers turned into her real friends. Phyllis gathered flowers from the river and from the field, and at home, she cultivated wonderful flowers in her garden. The flowers grew well in the rich brown soil.

All books about animals and plants share one thing in common: the authors love nature and take care of the flora and fauna of their countries.
