We can show each other that we care and respect and value each other without having to say anything about it. This book is just a great way to share how we can connect with each other without having to say a word. In one of my Sunday posts, I've shared before how I believe in the power of a smile and that smile is actually an acronym for Show Me I'm Loved Everyday. This book brings George Carlin's quote, 'Everyone smiles in the same language' to life.

What I love most about this story is that when you really think about friendship, there truly is an unsaid connection that brings friends together. It's like I know Flora and the flamingo inside and out. Despite that fact that there are no words in this book, the book completely spoke to me. In this wordless picture book, Molly Idle brings two characters to life with her artwork. I'm partial to the color pink so that might have something do to with it, but I can't imagine anyone could pick this book up and not feel soothed by this sweet stories of two unlikely friends. What I Think: Subtle colors and artwork and such graceful characters make this book easy to adore. Full of humor and heart, this stunning performance (and splashy ending!) will have readers clapping for more! With a twist, a turn, and even a flop, these unlikely friends learn at last how to dance together in perfect harmony.

GoodReads Summary: In this innovative wordless picture book with interactive flaps, Flora and her graceful flamingo friend explore the trials and joys of friendship through an elaborate synchronized dance.
