What is In my flower about?

A little butterfly finds comfort and shelter in a flower. As the sturdy, die-cut pages turn, children discover the special places where the butterfly rests, hides and feels safe. Bright illustrations, simple reassuring words and layered pages invite young readers to explore the flower’s cosy spaces. A finger puppet adds an interactive element, encouraging children to join in with the story and imagine the butterfly fluttering from petal to petal in a gentle natural world.
