Forsythia & Me

(3) K-3 Chester appreciates his multi-talented friend Forsythia, who can decorate elaborate birthday cakes, perform piano concertos, and grow prizewinning roses in winter, among other stupendous feats. Chester shines, though, when Forsythia falls ill. Intricate gray-scale illustrations with well-incorporated pops of vibrant color invite repeat viewing in this story about the give-and-take relationship shared between friends.
