I was sent this adorable book, Blooming Buddies In The Garden, to review. I really liked it. It had simple and clear messages, a pleasant tone, and the kids really liked it. I read it to them this week because we were discussing our feelings, and this book has some very sweet and not “in your face” thoughts about self esteem and loving yourself, and also accepting your own differences and those of others. We can still like people who are different then us! (I accidentally left it on the teacher’s station on Friday when I left- I can’t even IMAGINE what the kids will have done to it when I get back on Monday, LOL! Sigh- I had wanted to keep it aside to use again for flowers week! But they liked it- and so, we know what that means!)

The book is also visually beautiful, and has some very sweet lines. In one of my favorites, “sassy bitty bud” reminds her larger flower friend that she needs lots of room to shine!

I give this adorable book to BIG thumbs up. Our kids need to have our reminders that they don’t need to look or act a certian way. There is so much pressure on them, especially girls. I like what this book has to say, and I like how it is said. Good job, Blooming Buddies!
