Milo and the Crooked Sunflower – Paperback

All Milo wants is to grow something enormous.

Not a carrot. Not a pea. A sunflower so tall people notice it from across the street – tall enough to win the blue ribbon at the Summer Garden Show.

But giant sunflowers don’t grow on wishes. They grow on patience, and Milo has… some. He learns to wait for seeds, to check before he waters, to give away two of his three plants, and to say he’s sorry when his prize gets in the way of his friends.

Then the night before the show, a storm bends his sunflower sideways.

A warm, funny chapter book about growing – plants, friendships, and learning to lose well. For ages 6-8.
