  One seed, when nurtured, can grow and multiply to yield a garden that feeds a family for a lifetime. One penny, when saved and invested, can grow wealth that allows a family to live comfortably. It takes time, patience, and knowledge to grow a garden. It also takes time, patience, and knowledge to achieve financial well-being. 
  In her personal finance memoir, Growing Wealth, Julie Rains proposes three essentials for achieving financial freedom, just as she learned there are three essentials for growing a garden. She guides readers through those key essentials by sharing her initial failures and eventual successes in gardening and money management, using creatively crafted metaphors to engage her audience.  
  She takes her readers on a journey, bridging the gap between a scrawny bank account to a healthy brokerage account, all while revealing how to transform a patch of dirt into a batch of homegrown tomatoes. Overcoming her weaknesses in hands-on skills and drawing on her strengths in dealing with money matters, Rains shows how she learned to garden. While tending her garden and harvesting produce, she unearths truths about growing wealth.  
  There is more than one way to learn--just as there is more than one way to grow your garden and achieve financial freedom. Using Rains' emphasis on applying your strengths to mastering the essentials, your wealth and garden can thrive.

  ** THE ONLY BOOK MORE RIDICULOUS THAN 2020 **
  'It's BUCKETLICIOUS! I command you to enjoy this book' Lord Buckethead
  
  The Battle of Hastings, where Harold's penchant for wearing on his head an upturned bucket rather than the standard issue helmet was to prove his undoing; the invention of the wheel, which occurred when a gentleman in Mesopotamia stumbled upon a bucket and watched transfixed as it rolled across the floor; the foundation of Rome: Romulus, Remus and a bucket - the rest is history.
  
  Unchanged in design over millennia, the humble bucket possesses a versatility unmatched in the history of human invention. It is the unobtrusive onlooker, the fly on the wall sat in quiet contemplation at all great turning points in world history.
  
  Detailing 50 buckets that were present at great moments in history, Guardian travel writer and author of Tiny Castles and Tiny Histories, Dixe Wills, describes each event through their sage and unblinking gaze. It's time to start ticking some buckets off your list.
