description: In this poignant story about the friendship between a dandelion and a sparrow young readers are given a reassuring yet emotionally powerful introduction to the natural cycle of life. One fine summer day when Sparrow meets a dandelion with only 10 seed pods left he asks how he can help. Dandelion laments that a short while ago she was the brightest yellow but now a strong wind could blow away her remaining pods and no one will remember her. Together they decide to write Dandelion's story in the dirt and so Dandelion tells Sparrow all the things she has seen and loved. Later that night a storm changes everything. . . . But the tale of Dandelion lives on.
