The Golden Glow by Benjamin Flouw
5.0
'The Golden Glow' by Benjamin Flouw with translation by Christelle Morelli and Susan Ouriou is a wonderful picture book about nature and finding the unusual.
Fox enjoys looking through his botany books looking for new plants to add to his collection. One day he finds a plant called the Golden Glow and he must add it to his collection, so he gathers up supplies he'll need for the hike and sets out in search of the elusive flower. Along the way, he meets friends like Bear and Marten who will guide him to the elusive flower. Will he find the flower and what will he do once he finds it?
The book is filled with delightful papercut illustrations. I liked the category pages of the supplies Fox takes and the pictures of various trees and flowers. The story is wonderful as well with its gently unfolding story.
I received a review copy of this ebook from Tundra Books, Penguin Random House Canada, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
