Fragrant as a Flower - Paperback

by Lawrence F. Lowery (Author)

This book invites kids to discover what their sense of smell can teach them about the world. Young readers can roam along as a father tells his son about taking in the deliciousness of a pastry shop, the woodsy smells of a lumberyard, the nose-wrinkling stink of trash, the sweet scents of a fruit market or the freshness of spring on its way.
