"Bulbs and Blossoms" by Amy Le Feuvre is a children's novel written during the early 20th century. The story centers around the experiences of two children, Roland and Olive, as they adjust to life in England after returning from India. The book explores themes of nature, faith, and the cycles of life, particularly focusing on the joy of Easter and the symbolism of flowers blooming after winter. In the narrative, the children are taken in by their aunts—the four Miss Hunters—who provide a contrasting perspective on life compared to what Roland and Olive have known. As they learn about the harshness of an English winter, they find solace in their friendship with Old Bob, a gardener who teaches them important lessons about life, death, and resurrection symbolized through the growth of flowers from bulbs. The children, initially full of questions and concerns about their new surroundings, gradually learn that, like flowers that lay dormant through winter only to bloom in spring, life always has a way of renewing itself, culminating in a deeply touching Easter celebration that signifies hope and new beginnings.
