Sidewalk flowers  Cover Image Book Book

Sidewalk flowers / JonArno Lawson, Sydney Smith.

Lawson, JonArno, (author.). Smith, Sydney, 1980- (illustrator.).

Summary:

A little girl collects wildflowers while on a walk with her distracted father. Each flower becomes a gift, and whether the gift is noticed or ignored, both giver and recipient are transformed by their encounter. This wordless picture book, conceived by award-winning poet JonArno Lawson and beautifully brought to life by illustrator Sydney Smith, is an ode to the importance of small things, small people and small gestures.
