About The Basket of Flowers Novel
The Basket of Flowers is the first book of the Lamplighter Rare Collector’s Series by Christoph von Schmid. James, the king’s gardener, teaches his 15-year-old daughter Mary all the principles of godliness through his flowers. She is falsely accused of stealing, and the penalty is death. Mary remembers what her father had taught her: that it is better to die for the truth than to live for a lie.
Major themes of this novel include honesty, purity, and courage.
