When I was helping 3rd grade students with their reading skills, this is one of the books we read each year. I enjoyed the story because I like flowers. Several years after I retired, my sister asked me if I would like some Lupines for my garden, not knowing that I liked a book about Lupines. Every time my Lupines bloom, I think of her and the book.
