Description
A classic title back in print! George, the little gardener, is surprised when one of his beloved flowers is sad. The small daisy would rather be in the neighbor's beautiful garden filled with lilies and roses than in George's untamed yard. But when George assists her, she finds that things are not always as they seem. Bernadette Watts' beautiful pastel illustrations bring magic to this heart-warming story by Gerda Marie Scheidl about the things that matter most.
