Welcome to my garden of stories, poems and lullabies for children. Not only for young children, but for the child that lives in every human heart! My name is Christine Summerfield and I grew up in a large family in a small French village in southern Ontario, Canada. Some of my favorite early childhood memories include discovering flowers, bugs and birds in my mother's garden and fishing with my dad on Lake St Claire. I am a mother of two grown daughters and have always tended a garden in some form, whether it be an urban community plot in the city, growing a large veggies and herb garden or simply tending a few pots on a balcony. While working as a Waldorf early childhood teacher for many years, I delighted in tending a garden of children and watching the joy in their faces as they discovered the wonder that lives in every plant, animal and stone. The garden is where Life happens! So, open the gate, and enter with me into the wonderful world of story, poem and song...
