Il libro di Bloom di Little Bee di Yuval Zommer

My toddler asks for this one every single night - the Venus flytrap pages get the biggest giggles every time. The journey from gardens to greenhouses to deserts keeps the story moving at just the right pace for a short attention span.

The illustrations of the tulips and water lilies are gorgeous, and the board-book format holds up well to my toddler's grabbing. Little Bee's journey from gardens to deserts kept her engaged right through to the Venus flytrap page, which she thought was hilarious.

The board-book pages are sturdy enough that my two-year-old can turn them solo, and the fold-out greenhouse spread genuinely made her gasp. We’ve read it three nights in a row now, and she’s already pointing out the Venus flytrap before I flip the page.
