About this Story
“Fun, Whimsical, Engaging”
![]()
Hey there, nature lovers! We Are Growing by Laurie Keller is a super fun story about grass blades learning to love their differences. Meet a bunch of grass blades who are all growing—but in their own unique ways! Some are curly, some are spiky, and one even looks like a tiny umbrella.
The story starts when a big storm flattens the grass. At first, the blades feel sad about looking “different.” But then they realize their quirks make them special. The curly grass catches raindrops for bugs, the spiky grass keeps rabbits away, and the umbrella grass shades ladybugs. The rhymes are silly and easy to read: “Tall, short, curly, straight—each blade’s a winner! Differences make our meadow glitter!”
The illustrations are bright and full of personality. Kids will giggle at the grass blades’ surprised faces when they discover their talents. The story gently teaches kids to celebrate what makes them unique, without feeling preachy.
