Below is a list of children’s books about flowers you can use as you and your little one learn about flowers.

Flower Stories

Sidewalk Flowers by JonArno Lawson

In Sidewalk Flowers a little girl, in red, walks home with her dad through busy city streets.  As the girl walks she begins collecting flowers and weeds that are growing in the cracks, she then begins giving out her flowers to people she passes. This wordless story is told through black and white illustrations, as the little girl gives out flowers the illustrations begin to fill with color. I love the story and how the illustrations change with each act of kindness.
