The Golden Glow

(3) K-3 Translated by Christelle Morelli. This story (translated from the French) of a backpacking fox's journey to find a special flower and draw it in his botany journal teaches subtle lessons in wilderness preparedness, plant identification, altitude zones, and conservation. Fox eventually locates the elusive flower on a mountaintop, assisted by several animal companions along the way. Flouw's blocky, collage-like art includes dynamic landscapes and occasional field guide–style spreads.
