I'm not sure what I was expecting myself, going in, but this was not whatever I expected or hoped it'd be. A story about growing up, told from the perspective and the eye of two infants baby flowers (they're a twi sibling) about the world around them. This book is hanging on the air, I must admit I struggle in grasping them. I appreciate the premise and attempt, it was a beautiful piece, just not to my pleasure perhaps.
