Dandelion's Dream by Yoko Tanaka
What if a dandelion became a dandy lion? With enchanting, ethereal art, this is a wordless story where reality is transformed by imagination. In a meadow filled with dandelion buds just about to flower, one dandelion blooms into a real lion. Roots and leaves unfurl into four tiny paws and a long tail with a fluffy yellow tuft. What a great, wide world there is to explore when you have paws instead of roots! There are fast trains to ride, regal ships to sail, and cities with lights as bright as Dandelion’s field in full bloom. But will a real lion ever be content to go back to being a rooted dandelion?
Using a soft palette of greys and yellow, Tanaka’s surreal narrative is exquisitely rendered in soft-focused paintingsDandelion’s Dream is one of the most beautiful books you will see this spring. * The Irish Times *
