Picture books are the perfect medium to explore and help understand the world around us and to explore how we feel.
Hear from author Em Lynas introducing Annabelle and Flower; a gentle story that allows much room for discussion, about friendships, life cycles and seasons, and the text is perfectly complemented by the wonderful illustrations by Anuska Allepuz.
Review: 'The images about growth and changes, and the depictions of the seasons passing, are perfect for starting discussions about the seasons and life cycles with very young children, and even possibly loss and bereavement.'
