Celia by
5.0
Age: Kindergarten-3rd grade
What a lovely and insightful book that examines the healing power of discussion and spending one-on-one time with someone.
"Celia is the town listener. She listens to people's little problems, big problems, and all the in-between problems. Once they have shared their troubles with her and let them go--giving her the seeds of sorrow--they feel lighter and happier" (Inside jacket description). Celia then turns the seeds to life and transforms them into things which give happiness, donning the pages with beautiful circular bursts of color against a grey, penciled background.
