I recently interviewed the local author of the Nurse Florence children’s book series. Michael Dow is a registered nurse. He has written every book in this series. According to Dow, Nurse Florence is a book series that helps kids learn more about their bodies and how they work, while also honoring the historic champion of the nursing profession, Florence Nightingale. Dow has an extensive collection of Florence Nightingale memorabilia, including a first edition of “Notes On Nursing,” published in 1860.

Relax in the cool shade of our beautiful gardens, where the mature trees provide a refreshing 10° drop in temperature. Saturdays are especially fun for families, thanks to our partnership with the Children’s Museum Oro Valley, offering engaging nature-based play for kids.
