Bloom by Doreen Cronin
4.0
I love seeing longer picture books like Bloom - a sort of modern fairy tale, and I'm partial to Small's illustrations. They're well-suited to the story, with some great details that extend the story (body language, clothing, etc). I love the practicality of the magic (is there even magic in the story? I'm not sure) and the "no such thing as an ordinary girl" message.
May 2016 - a bit long for Ben (he flipped through some pages before I was done reading) but he enjoyed the mud and the bugs.
