and stunning artwork by award-winning and internationally
bestselling illustrator Britta Teckentrup, this picture book makes

"Under the ground, deep in the earth among the roots of the trees,
the little root children were fast asleep all winter long. . ."
When spring comes, it's time for the root children -- snowdrop,
forget-me-not, buttercup, daisy and poppy -- to wake up! There are
new dresses to sew, and insects to be painted. When summer comes,
the root children are free to play in the beautiful fields, ponds
and meadows. But when autumn comes and the cold wind starts to
blow, it's time to go back to their cosy home below ground. Sibylle
von Olfers' classic story has been loved by generations of
children. It's also available in a mini-format edition and a board
book for very little hands.
