Description
Flowers for Sarajevo by John McCutcheon is a heart-wrenching story about the power of beauty in the face of violence and suffering. When war breaks out, young Drasko must take over his family's flower stand alone, but it's not until he hears the heartbreaking music of a cellist that he finds a way to help make Sarajevo beautiful again. The story is inspired by real events from the Bosnian War and comes alive with the included CD featuring cellist Vedran Smailović accompanying John McCutcheon. This powerful tale explores how art can bring hope and solace in times of tragedy. A poignant reminder that even in the darkest moments, beauty can be found, Flowers for Sarajevo is a moving story that will stay with you long after you finish reading it.
