Default Suggestions of gardening books for Christmas?

present for a person who likes gardening, but is not an expert?
Thank you in advance!


An Ear To The Ground (Garden Science for Ordinary Mortals) by Ken
Thompson. (My favourite book ever - full of humour and seriousness at
the same time).

Reading 'Narrow Dog To Carcassone' by Terry Darlington. Nothing to do
about gardening but a splendid book to offer about the journeys of a
couple (and their whippet) on their narrow boat through France.
Laughing out loud kind of book.

You can check them here.
