My father and I were spending some precious moments together and had gone into our local bookstore - a W.H. Smith & Son, as I recall. He was a great lover of literature, poetry and nature - and he must have been searching for exactly the right book to ignite the spark of those passions in me" - from the Note by Julie Andrews Edwards.
