A Flower Is a Friend
Frieda Wishinsky$16.11
$18.95
In the garden ecosystem, a flower means many things to
each bird, insect, and creature. What does a flower do? They may not seem active to human
eyes, but for the creatures of the garden they dust a bumblebee, shade a frog,
feed a hummingbird, and serve as the center of a buzzing, humming, thrumming
community. In A Flower is a Friend, award-winning author Frieda
Wishinsky's spare text whispers softly to readers about the many ways a flower
cares for those around it, while award-winning illustrator Karen Patkau's
striking art provides a close-up view of each mouse, frog, and butterfly within
a blossom's embrace. Rich back matter unfurls further information about the
partnerships within the garden ecosystem, including the ways these garden
creatures are friends to flowers in return.
