      Summary

      In this fully illustrated Ojibwe story, a young dandelion learns about the stages of life with the support of his parents and grandmother. As the book concludes, "The dandelion gives its seeds to the wind to create a new fresh life. It has learned to let go, and in doing so it continues to nurture the bees and give us healing medicines. We too must let go. You will open up to the new gifts life and spirit has to offer. You can share those gifts as the dandelion does."
