Who would dare steal a sprig of jasmine from Duke Cosimo de' Medici's Boboli Gardens? A young gardener made bold by love. Who would dare try to save him when he's thrown in the dungeon at Volterra for his crime? Brave, clever Donatella, who knows the gardener's heart is true-and that even prison guards need to eat. Author's note. Sources. Full-color illustrations done in Prismacolor colored pencils and Prismacolor black fine marker.
