Sidewalk Flowers

In this wordless picture book, a little girl collects wildflowers while her distracted father pays her little attention. Each flower becomes a gift, and whether the gift is noticed or ignored, both giver and recipient are transformed by their encounter. "Written" by award-winning poet JonArno Lawson and brought to life by illustrator Sydney Smith, Sidewalk Flowers is an ode to the importance of small things, small people, and small gestures.

I'm a big girl...fifty-something...and this brought me straight back home to my childhood! Oh sure, my parents did not have cell phones, but I remember going with them on errands, walking along and doing the very same things the little girl in this book did. The page where she finds the bird, oh that made my heart ache with remembrance of how a death could move us emotionally, young as we were!
This is a lovely book to buy for a grandchild (which I did), to "read" together and inspire conversation about all kinds of topics that touch all of us in the past or present. It's a story for everyone to enjoy.

This is one of the most touching and beautiful books ever. It captures what a kid acts like and how they are totally unaware that they are magical and bringing beauty and joy to life. It is a visual poem. I'm so glad I bought it. It reminds me that life is beautiful. Wonderful book. I immediately showed it to my mom and she loved it too.

This is a great wordless picture book to share with your little ones. It is city-centric, which I liked, that shows you how to find beauty everywhere. Beautiful illustrations. I love how you get more color as the story goes on.

So delightful! We "read" it over and over with our niece and will definitely get this book for other kiddos in our life. It's beautiful and sweet. Wish there were more out there like it.

I bought this book for my boyfriend after a stressful time. It is incredibly special to us. Beautiful illustration
