The Dandelion Seed
The Dandelion Seed
Product #:
188322067X
Description:
NAPRA Review Reminiscent of Rose Fyleman's A Fairy Went A-Marketing and Barbara Helen Berger's classic A Grandfather Twilight, this beautifully illustrated story is profoundly simple and wise. With very few words at all, featuring lush and brightly colored full-page pictures, this is a simple tale of change and renewal. Through the story of one last dandelion seed afraid to "let go" into the autumn winds, the themes of trust and divine will are illuminated. The cycle of ripenings, dispersal, dormancy, and eventual sprouting brings wisdom to the once-frightened little seed. Surrender leads to discovery, and trust grows like the seedling rooted in the earth. It is not until the beautifully wrought ending that we glimpse a human—a little girl blowing on a dandelion "wisher"—showing the universal through a child's eyes.
