Description

IBPA Benjamin Franklin Award Gold Winner

A story about seeing and being seen that leaves the world a little more beautiful.

Sly as a fox and swift as a bird, Lou Alice is determined to leave each day a little more beautiful than she found it. But when she moves away from her little house, no one in town notices she's gone. No one, that is, except a little girl, who sets out to carry on Lou Alice's work. But doing so is not enough.

Can the girl find a way of her own to make the world a little more beautiful?

For readers who love Miss Rumphius by Barbara Cooney or The Library by Sarah Stewart and David Small.

Editorial Reviews

"A Little More Beautiful is a story about change-but not the loud and busy change of activism and politics. Instead, it is about the small, quiet, private changes each person can make themselves to make the world brighter. Breezy Brookshire's glowing, softly colored watercolor illustrations bring the story richly to life, filling each page with the ordinary, everyday, cozy beauty of a well-tended landscape, emphasizing that the beauty in nature is not just about wildness but also about the relationships of human beings to their environment. The simple and minimalist text encourages readers to experience this message as much through seeing and thinking as through reading. A Little More Beautiful: The Story of a Garden is a picture book that does, indeed, leave the world a little more beautiful than it found it". -The Children's Book Review
