Review: This book has powerful images that help to prompt great discussion with children. It shows a world that is very removed from what we currently have, so it leads to interesting discussions and questions from children. I would highly recommend.

Review: Book is a real mess after delivery person jammed it through the letterbox despite notes to say put under gate or with neighbour. This was a gift. I can't give it to anyone now!

    Description: Brigg lives in a small, grey room in a large, grey city. When he finds a book in the library labelled 'Do Not Read', he cannot resist taking it home. In it, he comes upon pictures of bright, vibrant objects called flowers. He cannot find flowers anywhere in the city, but stumbles instead on a packet of seeds. This sets off a chain of events which bring about unexpected results, continuing to grow and bloom even after we have turned the last page. John Light's enigmatic story is told with utter simplicity, but resonates long after we finish reading this book. His increasingly optimistic vision is hauntingly captured by Lisa Evans's beautiful and whimsical illustrations. Waterstones The Flower - shop the best deal online on thebookbug.co.uk
