But Lilly rises to the occasion as only Lilly can, turning heartbreak into wedding cake (a delicious three-tiered frosted Swiss cheese, no less) and disappointment into friendship.



Review Quotes




"Lilly is one of the great female characters in literature--like Anna Karenina with whiskers or Scarlett O'Hara with paws." -- USA Today

"Caldecott Award winner Kevin Henkes once again demonstrates perfect pitch for the emotional lives of the very young. Lilly, of course, understands the true truth: the flower girl is more important than the bride." -- Chicago Tribune
