Unexpected and fantastical elements make The Boy Who Grew Flowers a memorable and moving tall tale. Lushly illustrated by Canadian artist Steve Adams, the picture book uses humour and metaphor to promote tolerance and acceptance. Rink is a very unusual little boy who grows beautiful flowers all over his body when there is a full moon. In town and at school, Rink and his family are treated as outcasts. But one day a new girl arrives at school, and Rink discovers she has some unique qualities of her own.Ages 7-9
