About the Book:
Flowers and Friendships Need Time to Grow

It's the first day of summer in Buttercup Grove. Hooray! What a better way to celebrate than planting some flowers. Raccoon gathers his friends and they get to work digging holes for the sunflower seeds he found. But there's a big problem. Sunflowers take all summer to grow and that's a long time! It's going to take a lot of hard work and patience before Raccoon and his pals see big, bright flowers. Sometimes, the most beautiful things in life are worth waiting for.

***

In the tradition of timeless classics such as The Tale of Peter Rabbit and The Many Adventures of the Winnie the Pooh, The Tales of Buttercup Grove series introduces young readers, ages 4-8, to the many fun adventures of Skunk, Raccoon, and the rest of their woodland friends. Along the way, your child will learn timeless Christian values, such as sharing, compassion, kindness, encouragement, and patience, and learn a key Bible verse at the end of each story.


My Review:
 Such a sweet book based on friendship and the verse Romans 8:25. The friends of Buttercup Grove have no shortage of friendly times. They each love and respect and help each other when needed. The Sunflower Summer is the perfect example of just that. Raccoon finds the perfect gift for his friends a pack of sunflower seeds. It isn't long before the friends set to work discovering the prettiest flower of the summer and how it gets its name. A great little addition to the series. One sure to warm the heart and soul of anyone, especially on a cold, windy day.
