By Molly Idle
In Flora and the
Flamingo, author and illustrator Molly Idle tells the story of a young girl
who would love nothing more than to dance like the beautiful flamingo with whom
she shares a pond. At first, the girl emulates the flamingo in secret, until a
wobbly fall gives her away. As the young dancer and her new flamingo friend
begin to dance together, they learn about friendship, teamwork, and how much
more fun it can be to share a dance with a partner.
Flora and the Flamingo
is an exquisite wordless tale that was named a Caldecott Honor book in 2014 for
its beautiful illustrations and remarkable storytelling. Recommended for
children who enjoy birds, dancing, and all things pink, this book is sure to
bring laughter and imagination to your child’s day.
