Leland and the Sad Little Orchid

By: Laura Perry

One very sunny summertime day, Leland and his dad go looking for a flower for his mommy's birthday at the garden market. Leland finds a sad little purple orchid with spots. He sees her frown and knows Mommy will know just what to do to cheer her up.

Leland and the Sad Little Orchid is a delightful and fun story to teach children that while change can be scary, in time things will fall into place.
