The Flower and the Fairy Heather Israel

The Flower and the Fairy is about a small girl, a fairy, that looks at the world in wonder and sees beauty in all things. Even things with thorns. Because of her ability to see beauty where others might not, she's able to make a friend that she may have otherwise overlooked. The fairy, Hannah, is a character created to reflect my own daughter and her ability to see beauty everywhere she goes and her ability to make friends with children that were overlooked by other children. The butterfly, Flower, is a reflection of what we can see when we just look around and are open to the possibilities of what each person may bring to our lives.
