Books with title Dandelion

Sometimes it's not fun being a dandelion-getting tromped on, snowed on, and eaten alive. It's not fun watching the dandy, dandy lion, the king of the jungle, doing all the things a dandelion would like to do-like being the most powerful, the best looking, and especially, free to travel anytime he wanted. The dandelion thinks on these things as its wilted leaves curl in distress. And it sighs, "Oh, for the life, the abundant life." But what is the abundant life? The dandelion's not sure. And will it ever figure it out. Is this all there is? Some are dandy, dandy lions, and some are just dandelions. Where is the justice? Will the dandelion ever find it? Will it ever be able to rise above all the trials and tribulations of being a dandelion? Or will something or Someone help the dandelion see itself, the way God sees all His creations? Special, unique, and fit for the Master's hand.

Sweet little Dandelion lived all alone; her bed was a barrel, her companion, a bone. The soft green grass had been slowly replaced; leaving dirt behind in the path that she paced.In the daytime she’d wait while she watched passing cars. In the darkness she’d wish on all of the stars. In the winter she’d shiver; no escape from the cold. With no shield from the sun, summers got old.She yearned for a family and a nice, cozy bed; a scratch on the belly, a pat on the head. She dreamed of the day when SHE’D be the one, alongside a jogger for a brisk morning run.There was only one thing that brought Dandelion joy: a redheaded, freckle-faced, 8-year-old boy…Could a little boy be Dandelion’s hero? Find out in this lyrical rhyming story from author Heather Leughmyer, part of her Kindness to Animals Series. Perfect for ages 5 and up, and excellent for both humane education and library and family story time.
