#CuriousCovers Day 25: #Flowers. Winner of the Jane Addams Children‘s Book Award, the IRA Children‘s Book Award Notable Book, and Society of Illustrators Original Art Exhibition among other accolades, this is a remarkable story of resilience and the capacity of the human spirit (and sunflowers) to thrive amidst darkness and barbed wires, even in “a place where nothing beautiful grows.” My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-7YO
