THE FLOWER IN THE THICKETS
by
DEE PHELPS writing as MARCELLA MILLER
This is the story of a brave little seedling that was meant to flourish in a garden by a wealthy mansion, but instead was dropped by accident into a nasty thicket. The thickets do not want the seedling to grow and threatens to block out the plant’s sun and water. But the seedling is determined and manages to get enough light and moisture to become a little bigger, even in this hostile environment. When the plant manages to survive, the thickets threaten to tear at her petals. But even the thickets can’t stop the plant from not only surviving, but from triumphing in the end.
Written with wit and compassion, THE FLOWER IN THE THICKETS gently suggests that beauty can be found anywhere if you know where to look. Children will love the warm thoughtful story and the plucky spirit of the little plant. Adults will appreciate the author’s wise and generous insights about finding your place in the world. Gorgeously told, this is sure to be a treasured edition to any home or school library
