Description
Life is full of important lessons and the sooner we all can learn from these lessons the better! With "The Fastest Flower in the Park", the first in the "Flowers and Lessons" series, the lesson to be learned is that having pride and self confidence in your abilities is great but, when it reaches the point of arrogance, it can cause you to lose your humility and, with it, the joy you receive in just doing what you love! Actions speak louder then words in this very thoughtful and heartfelt edition of the "Flowers and Lessons" series where great characters spring to life on the pages and bring home great life lessons! Join Dandy Lion as he rushes to prove to all his flower friends that he is the fastest flower in the park and learns some great lessons along the way! A great book to read and to have read to for children up to 10 years old, you will love to read it again and again long after the lesson being taught has subtly been placed in the back of your mind that everything is great in moderation, especially pride!
