Summary

Bloom isn't interested in playing in messy mud puddles with other pigs. She'd rather galavant among pretty flowers. Bloom LOVES flowers and other pretty things. She also likes attention. And when a beautiful butterfly, a "flying flower" wafts by, she falls head over heels in love. But she soon learns that attraction is fleeting, and friendship brings a deeper, more satisfying love. Maria Van Lieshout deftly, gently portrays the true meaning of love and friendship in story and pictures that are perfect for readers of all ages.

Table of Contents

“Come on, BLOOM . . .

. . . it’s mushy and slushy and delicious in here!”

“No thanks,” said BLOOM. “I’m not in the mood for puddles.”

She felt like DANCING and SINGING . . .

. . . and stretching out under the flowers.

BLOOM closed her eyes and took in a deep, sweet breath.

“I love flowers,” she sighed.

A flutter brushed by.

“A flying flower! A FLYING, DANCING flower!” BLOOM gasped. “He is the most BEAUTIFUL thing I’ve ever seen!”
