Ava's Poppy

(3) PS Ava takes care of a lone red poppy growing in the field by her house. When it turns brown and shrivels, she buries it sadly and marks the spot with rocks. To her surprise and delight, a new poppy sprouts there in the spring. In the spare illustrations that complement this simple joyful story, the texture of the paint calls to mind the papery feel of poppy petals.
