I gave this book to my niece who is nearly 3 for my upcoming wedding. Her mom had been trying to explain what a flower girl is and what she needs to do, but my niece was having a difficult time grasping it all. When I gave her the book, she instantly understood and I knew she was so excited to play such an important role. We read the book about a million times, substituting the names for ours and she loved it. This is incredibly adorable - perfect for a little girl!

Love this! I bought this book for our flower girl and she loved it. She was 3 at the time, and she loved the flower necklace that came with the book, and the story. The book helped to get her ready to be our flower girl, and helped diminish some stage fright (we had a rather large wedding). I highly recommend it. (plus, I wrote her a note inside the book, so it was a really special gift, that will help her remember our special day).

This book is fantastic! It explains all the important wedding events so that little girls can understand it. My daughter loves having me read it to her, and it think it has not only increased her understanding of what weddings are about, but increased her excitement about her role as a flower girl.
I would recommend this book to all those who have a little flower girl in training!
It also has some great tips for parents at the end after the story.
