For ages 3-9...

Mia is a six year old first grade student. She has recently moved from the city to the suburbs and she isn't happy about it. She has to ride a school bus, instead of her mommy driving her to school. Her classmates always ask her silly questions, or say mean things, like calling her hair "snake hair". Mia wishes everyone can look the same, but her mommy teaches Mia a powerful lesson using the flowers from her garden to show how different everyone is, but unique and beautiful in their own way. Mia's flower garden supports diversity in a school environment and is fun for all readers.
