CIP Info When Ping admits that he is the only child in China unable to grow a flower from the seeds distributed by the Emperor, he is rewarded for his honesty. this is the first time I have read this book. I read it about three times a year. I first heard it on Between the Lions Demi is a fabulous storyteller. The illustrations have such detail and emotion. The honesty of Ping is almost heartbreaking, but in the end he is rewarded. The message “always do your best” is perfect for any season.
