Description: Six-year-old Shu Shu is unable to contain her excitement about her happy secret-to find daisies for her mother. She tells her sister her secret plan, and then sets out on her adventure, determined not to tell anyone else. Surrounded by nature's rhythmic symphony, she grows frustrated by the animals she meets along the way because they refuse to let her pick their daisies. When she approaches the smart-alecky goat who guards the most beautiful daisies of all, she attempts to outsmart him with a gift of kindness. Readers of this picture book for children will share in Shu Shu's delight as she discovers how wonderful it feels to do something nice for someone-even when doing so is more difficult than she ever imagined. The repetition of sounds and comical animal characters add flavor to this simple, yet thoughtful, story.
