The Little Flower Girl

Linda Tracey Brandon · 1997
62/100
👎 Skip It

This little book does exactly what it sets out to do — reassure a nervous young flower girl that she can handle the job and it will be wonderful — and for that very specific occasion it is genuinely useful. Outside of that single use case, though, there is not much here: the narrative is thin, it is out of print, and the charm depends entirely on the child having a wedding coming up. A pleasant gift for the right moment, but not a book most families will reach for twice.
