  Through the botanical garden maze of Bloomridge, where perfumers distill lavender laced labyrinths from fragrance clues and flower thieves pluck petals of the rare, perfumer Aria sleuths scentedly with thief Ronan, whose thefts scent a plot of garden sabotage. Their labyrinth, distilled in fragrance vows and petal-kissed essences, uncovers truth—or wilts in over-scented mists of misdirection. As they navigate through maze-laced hedges and clue-bound greenhouses, laced by scent wardens and bloom rivals, Aria's perfuming art fuses with Ronan's thieving stealth, revealing a botanical legend of laced revelation. When a wilted lavender summons pollen phantoms, they must distill the sleuthing to bloom the resolution. In the lace of lavender labyrinths, where every fragrance trails the secret and every theft blooms the twist, their delicate mystery becomes the scent that perfumes the garden's peace.

  Young Sunnie Rae is contemplating what could be so important about using a silent letter E. Sure, E starts words of big things, like elephant, but when it ends words, most of the time it makes now sound at all, so who needs it? 
  This children's book shows how with the change of just one silent letter, words can drastically change to entirely different words. For example, instead of being cute, you'd be cut. Ouch. That would hurt. Or maybe your robe would rob or Superman would wear a cap instead of a cape. What would be so super about him then? Sunnie Rae realizes in the end how wrong she was to think it unimportant and finishes with "Thank Goodness for Silent E!" 
  Children and adults alike laugh as they read and see the changes that occur when using, or not using a silent ? All ages enjoy coming up with new words to make changes to. 
  This is a great addition to any elementary classroom or library. It is extremely helpful for teaching reading skills to student who are learning English as a first or second language.
