24.6. Eleanor Perenyi, Green Thoughts: A Writer in the Garden (1981) (essays): A classic in the literature of the garden, Green Thoughts is a beautifully written and highly original collection of seventy-two essays. An amateur gardener for over thirty years, Eleanor Perényi draws upon her wide-ranging knowledge of gardening lore to create a delightful, witty blend of how-to advice, informed opinion, historical insight, and philosophical musing.

29.7. Judy Blume, Are You There God? It’s Me Margaret (1970): Margaret Simon has a lot of things to think about – making friends in a new school, boys and dances and parties, growing physically „normal“ and choosing a religion. With sensitivity and humor, Judy Blume has captured the joys, fears, and uncertainties that surround a girl approaching adolescence.
