Can anyone help me identify this lovely book from my childhood

[TondelayoSchwarzkopf]

Illustrated book for around 5-7 year olds.

Quirky style - like Madeline.

About 2 sisters who were botanists. The title, I think was their names.

Lovely strange spidery illustrations and pictures of nature.

May have been set in Edwardian times...

Any pointers would be great.

Try posting on the abebooks.com BookSleuth forum they seem to be able to identify anything (don't worry about the .co.uk site much more traffic on .com)
