Flora and the Peacocks

Description

The darling, dancing Flora is back, and this time she's found two new friends: a pair of peacocks! But amidst the fanning feathers and mirrored movements, Flora realises that the push-and-pull between three friends can be a delicate dance. Will this trio find a way to get back in step? In the third book featuring Flora and her feathered friends, Molly Idle's gorgeous art combines with clever flaps to reveal that no matter the challenges, true friends will always find a way to dance, leap, and soar-together.

Molly Idle began her career as an artist working for DreamWorks Animation, and from there she leapt into the world of children's books. She is the author of the Caldecott Honor-winning Flora and the Flamingo, as well as its companion, Flora and the Penguin, among other picture books. She lives in Tempe, Arizona, where she dances through life with her handsome husband, mischievous children, and fabulous family and friends.
