Book
When flowers bloom and sparrows sing / written by John Weier ; illustrated by Sheldon Dawson.
Tante Madeline knew life on the vast Canadian prarie had its hardships. When the work became too much, though, she grew tired of the chores, tired of the hot and cold and maybe even tired of living with Oncle Henri and young Cousin Jakey. Then she dreamed about flowers -- luscious riots of them in every size and colour, sweet and rich as her memories, and beautiful as the constant music of the song sparrow -- and she devised a bold plan that soon became the talk of the village. By turns touching and humerous, When Flowers Bloom and Sparrows Sing embraces struggle, hope, and happiness.
