After Anna's father gives her eight tulips for her birthday, she barters seven of them for farm animals, furniture, and a painting. Despite enticements of gold and jewels, Anna refuses to trade her last tulip as she values it more than anything else. This lighthearted treatment of the Dutch tulip craze in the 1600s features short sentences and sunny pictures.
