Red in the Flower Bed
by Jennifer Dunlap
We were asked to participate in a blog hop for the review of a new adoption book from Tribute Books. The book is called Red in the Flower Bed and is written by an adoptive mom. I happen to personally enjoy reading books to my children that rhyme and this book is a fun read. Not only is it fun, it has an important message. It doesn't hit the reader over the head with adoption language, which can be a nice change of pace. However the adoption theme is obvious in a gentle way.I think my two favorite parts are in the beginning when the the poppy is sad to see the seed leave and at the end when the daisy says "best of all, look down the row, we now have a complete rainbow" so fitting for our family! We always enjoy a book that opens up adoption discussion in a positive way.
This book would be a welcome addition to any adoptive family's library. For more information on how to add this book to your home or to give as a gift please visit Red in the Flower Bed as well as Tribute Books
