A Flower Wedding (1905)

by Walter Crane Return to list Adopt this book

Produced by Walter Crane, one of the best-loved illustrators of the British Arts and Crafts movement, this poem tells the delightful story of a wedding day in 1905. With its lovely and romantic illustrations, this title would be the perfect gift to adopt for Valentine’s Day.

I use the British Library often for research, but I LOVE adopting books as gifts for people. My most recent adoption was in honor of my English professor in college. I am not just a literary scholar because of her influence--I am also a better human being.

My daughter and I both love the ambiance of the British Library and feel proud to be Readers. Supporting the Adopt a Book scheme is the least I can do.
