Magical ........

Beautiful illustrations accompany this magical world where the imagination knows that just maybe little elves hide amongst these plants that "never ever bloom" using them as umbrellas to shelter them from the rain.....

Rhyming text, great colorful illustrations. WONDERFUL!

Rhyming, concise text makes learning about non-blooming plants and trees effortless. Each double page spread is grouped in either a logical flow format or grouped by color. The result is vibrant color. The range of plant colors is amazing. An appropriate animal, fish or bird accompanies the illustration.My children (aged 3 and 6) found this engaging. My 6 year old even memorized some of the rhymes after just one reading. This is a refreshing change compared to most of the nonfiction books for children aged 4-8 which contain boring text and mediocre illustrations. This is a wonderful, short book about non-flowering plants. Well done!
