This week is the first in a special series we'll be dipping into every now and again that we're calling "Behind the Books"-- a chance for us to hear from authors and learn more about the story behind their books.

This week Christie is in the hot seat with a big new reveal.

Today's Out of the Ordinary Book:

Garden Maker: Growing a Life of Beauty and Wonder with Flowers, Christie Purifoy

Key Conversation Points:

• We go behind Christie's newest book to give you the scoop on the title and the key change that made the subtitle so pitch perfect
• Christie shares the brand new skill she had to learn to make this book possible
• Lisa-Jo brags about how she influenced the cover photo, which was never the one Christie had planned to use
• We learn how the pandemic impacted Christie's garden and how this book rescued her flowers
• This book has something to say to every gardener and non-gardener alike about the value of your life.
