معلومات عن هذا الكتاب الإلكتروني

A Garden of Flowers is a beautiful and heartwarming celebration of diversity and uniqueness. It reminds young readers that every person brings a valuable perspective to our world, making it a more vibrant and exciting place to live in. A sequel to Michael Rosenblum’s popular The Caterpillar and the Butterfly, in A Garden of Flowers we see the return of the butterfly Faith who helps bring understanding and peace to a squabbling garden. The book’s message is clear: we are ALL born as a special gift to teach each other about ourselves. The delightful full-page artwork accompanying the story adds a touch of magic, bringing to life the colorful world of flowers and their unique characteristics. The story acknowledges that just as every flower in a garden is different and beautiful, every person is beautifully unique and special in their own way. It teaches children the importance of accepting and celebrating differences and diversity, and how our differences make our world a dynamic and fascinating place to live in. After all, if all our colors were the same, we wouldn’t have rainbows.
