"The Blossom Shoppe is a sweet little story of family coming together, using their creativity, working hard, and showing everyone what a beautiful, colorful world we live in! I can't wait to share this with my students and show them they can always fight for what they believe in and always let their true colors shine! I must also say what an amazing job Joanie Stone did on the gorgeous illustrations for this book! I not only read the words in this book many times, but just sat and flipped through the pages to look at all of the beautiful pictures over and over! I definitely recommend this book, it is absolutely blossom!"

"This is a wonderful book about how small seeds and believing in miracles can change a town. This book also teaches that it is OK to be unique and stand out. The story line is captivating - I kept turning pages over to see what happens next. Illustrations are gorgeous and they evolve to keep up with the changes in the story line."

"My daughter and I were browsing for books online and she was immediately drawn to the cover of this one. I was happy to discover that this book not only has a beautiful cover and adorable illustrations, but an important message for young readers: when we are true to ourselves and choose to celebrate our unique colors, AMAZING things can happen (not only for ourselves, but for everyone around us). I am so happy to add this beautiful and empowering story onto my bookshelf and to have a book with positive girl role models that my daughter can look up to. We hope to see more of Poppy and Posie Blossom in the future!"
