Charming New Children's Book Teaches Perseverance and Resilience

The Flower in the Thickets by Marcella Miller is a magical children's book that celebrates diversity.

Beaufort, SC (PRWEB) October 25, 2007 -- The Flower in the Thickets by Marcella Miller charmingly explores how a determined little seedling is able to not only survive in the thickets, but to prosper.

In a wise and warm children's book, author Marcella Miller shows children how tough times can make them stronger, wiser, and even more alive. The Flower in the Thickets is about a brave little seedling who finds himself dropped into the thickets. Growing among the thorns, the seedling has to struggle to get enough light and water. Never giving up hope, the brave little seedling manages to grow into a lovely flower with an even more beautiful future!

While raising her own children, retired nurse Miller realized that many children see their friends move every two or three years, or move themselves. These moves, which include the challenges of new friends, schools and homes, can be hard on children. The Flower in the Thickets emphasizes that a strange environment may seem scary, but with wit, spunk and imagination, children can triumph.

Warmly written and beautifully illustrated, The Flower in the Thickets is sure to be a prize edition to any home or school library.
