The Fanciest Flower

The Fanciest Flower is an eye-popping, fluorescently vivid, and hilariously written book about staying true to your roots—literally!—from debut author/illustrator Summer Benton.

Ferny O’Violet always knows the perfect flower to brighten someone’s day. But when a customer comes into her shop who wants something no one’s ever seen before, Ferny gives her a flower that actually isn’t a flower at all! And even worse, now everyone wants one for themselves. What’s a florist to do when she’s selling a lie? Will she dare to return to her roots even if it means disappointing the people who love her?

Filled with whimsical illustrations and gorgeously detailed scenes, it’s a heartwarming story about staying true to what you love and who you are, from debut artist and author Summer Benton

Benton has crafted an effective parable about how marketing hype can create its own dead end, dressed in delightful nonsense to appeal to lovers of the ridiculous. - Kirkus
