Blossom and Grow: A Pony's Tale

Ruth Ann Warren discusses and reads her mother's original children's story, Blossom and Grow: A Pony's Tale About a Farmer and a Garden, published by Trafford, a Penguin/Random House company. The author, Sylvia WArren, a progressive, professional woman well ahead of her time, wrote the story in the early 1950s for her children. A manuscript, illustrated by Ruth Warren's father, was a personal treasure of the family until its publication this year. Now a newly illustrated edition allows this story of hope. love, and purpose to be shared with children everywhere.

Blossom's Song is by Tony Pasquariello.
