The Dandelion's Tale

Kevin Sheehan and Rob Dunlavey have teamed up to create a lovely new yarn, The Dandelion's Tale. An adorable sparrow befriends a dying dandelion with only ten seed pods left. She worries she will be forgotten forever.


The two decide the best way for Dandelion to be remembered is to tell her stories to sparrow who will lovingly etch them into the earth with her beak. Sparrow dutifully writes the poetic words of Dandelion. Sadly that very night Dandelion passes away during a summer storm. Sparrow sings a song of sorrow, but is pulled out of her sorrow with a special realization. Ivy and I just loved this book.
