About This Book
A parent might reach for this book when their sensitive child shows an early interest in nature and needs a story that models gentle empathy and proactive kindness. This quiet tale introduces Princess Buttercup, a tiny flower princess who discovers some lost seeds on a hard path where they cannot grow. Taking on the role of caregiver, she carefully moves them to a sunny spot and nurtures them until they bloom. The story is a beautiful, simple illustration of responsibility and the joy that comes from helping even the smallest things. For children ages 4 to 7, it's a perfect choice to reinforce the value of stewardship and to connect the popular 'princess' interest with a love for the natural world.
