Submitted by Ms. Tammy!My Friends the Flowers by William Lach. Follow along as a friend of the flowers introduces you to each of his unique flower friends. Some of his friends live in the country fields, suburban streets, or city towers. Each page displays one on his flower friends describing their characteristics or temperament. He visits with Marigold, who scares all the bugs, Sunflower, who is basking in the sun while an ant lays on his leaf sipping tea, and Snapdragon, who is spicy-sweet and eager to attack. As you meet each flower you’ll enjoy the bright colors and expressions shared by them and their bug friends. You may be surprised to learn the story is being told by a bumble bee! The glossary is organized in the order that the flowers appeared in the story. Each flower has a color photo along with the scientific name and formal name in parentheses. There are instructions for growing 3 different flower gardens: a Bug-Scaring garden, a Sun-Loving garden, or a Fast-Growing garden. See this book listed in our catalog
