Sprightly the carrot has the perfect life… for a normal carrot. However, Sprightly is not your normal carrot. He wants to become a flower. Dave the daisy and the other flowers make fun of Sprightly, but his upbeat nature prevails. With the help of Ralph the dog, creativity, and hard work, the sprightly carrot proves that even the most unlikely dreams can come true in this funny, heart warming adventure.
I really enjoyed this book. It is interesting and humorous. The author has a vivid imagination and that is well reflected in this story. This is just what you may think a carrot could dream about. The illustrations, also done by the author, are bright, vibrant and engaging. They will really capture a young readers attention. Though the ending may not be for everyone, more adventurous parents and young readers will no doubt be left laughing and giggling about the carrots journey. A breath of fresh air and a hidden message about the life cycle. Cue "The Circle of Life" from The Lion King! Well done.
I really enjoyed this book! It's full of imagination. The illustrations really vivid and engaging to look at. It's definitely a fun book to read with kids. I love that it also teaches several lessons without being too obvious or preachy. 1. Dream big and don't give up, no matter what others say. 2. Importance of friendship and being loyal to one another. 3. Stand up to bullies. The ending was surprising and unexpected, but I won't ruin that for you. Get a copy of the book and read it for yourself!
