About this ebook

From a Caldecott Honor–winner—Learn about opposites and dance along as Flora attempts to befriend a shy ostrich.

Inspired by Caldecott Honor book Flora and the Flamingo, this e-book is perfect for the very youngest Flora fans. When a new feathered friend seems so different from her, Flora discovers that opposites, in fact, attract!

Featuring Molly Idle’s graceful artwork, this adorable e-book of opposites will delight young children as they master new words and concepts. Plus, this is the fixed format version, which looks almost identical to the print edition.

Praise for Flora and the Ostrich

“In Ostrich, Flora befriends the long-necked bird. . . . Idle’s characters, girl and birds alike, are wonderfully expressive, and the images have a timeless quality.” —School Library Journal (starred review)
