Beskrivelse
This book teaches the importance of diversity, friendship, speaking up and being heard----whether you're a little boy, girl, or flower.
Flowers Only (no weeds allowed), is a collaboration between celebrated Sesame Street Illustrator, Barry Goldberg, and Author Mimi Mazzarella. Set around the annual flower festival, this book encourages healthy dialogue about the importance of individual rights, diversity, friendship, and speaking up and being heard...whether you're a little boy, or little girl, or a flower.
Dan DeLion is not allowed to go to the annual flower festival, because he is a weed. Iris, his plucky best friend, manages to get him into the gala, but Dan is definitely not welcomed.
During a speech at the Festival, a troublemaker named Ritzy Rose proclaims, "This Festival was supposed to be for cultivated flowers only " But, with Iris standing up for him, the flowers realize how truly wonderful Dan DeLion is
Iris exhibits her "girl power" directness by speaking up for her friend and showing the others that festivals, parties, and life itself, should never be for "Flowers Only."
