Pretty Yellow Flower

By Mark Donnelly

Emily isn't just any flower-she's a pretty yellow dandelion who loves the sunshine, the bees, and the gentle summer breeze. But while tulips and roses are praised, Emily hears only frowns and the word "weed."

Why is she so disliked when all she wants to do is brighten the world?

Join Emily on a heartfelt journey as she meets a kind young girl who sees her true beauty. Together, they discover that sometimes the very thing others overlook can hold the most magic. From golden petals to fluffy white wishes, Emily learns that her difference is her greatest gift.

Told in gentle, sing-song rhyme and brought to life with vivid, photo-style illustrations, this is a story about kindness, self-worth, and finding joy in who you are-perfect for children ages 3-8.

A perfect read-aloud for:

Teaching acceptance and empathyCelebrating nature's beauty-big and smallEncouraging children to see the good in themselves and others

Emily's story will remind readers-young and old-that every flower has a purpose, and every wish can change the world.
