Overview
The world is full of wonders, if we take a small moment to look! A beautiful story about everyday magic. April’s town is dull and gray, and the people there are too busy to laugh or look up at the sky. But when April remembers Grandma’s stories about wonder in the world, like the secret language of flowers, April wonders: Can dandelions help? Planting tiny seeds while the seasons shift towards spring, April watches as the dandelions and other flowers sprout, bringing more than a little wonder back to her community. Debut author-illustrator Sally Soweol Han’s gorgeous and inspirational story encourages young readers to consider how they too can plant a little wonder in the world.
