This imaginative story from Ruth Krauss--one of the most beloved children's book authors of all time--and celebrated artist Sergio Ruzzier is a remarkable collaboration that captures the timeless spirit of Krauss's signature wit and humor. Paired with Ruzzier's irresistible drawings, this story will delight readers of all ages and inspire them to roar like dandelions.

The animals awake from their winter hibernation and discover the first flower of spring.

Despite everyone's dire predictions, a little boy has faith in the carrot seed he plants.

Tiny boys and girls play under a mushroom--setting up a little town, imagining they are flowers, and pretending all sorts of things.

A little boy plants a carrot seeds and take care of it.

Brief stories, poems, and drawings describe varied aspects of friendship and love.
