My Review
By Lynda Dickson
Adri is a little rock with a big dream. Deep down, she knows she's meant to be a plant, but how can she make that happen?
In this book we go on an adventure with Adri to find out if her dream comes true. Along the way, we learn educational facts about plants and get a lesson in patience, perseverance, and belief. The magical, whimsical illustrations by Carlos López give cute little Adri a big personality to go with her big dream.
Delightful!
