The lady slipper grows in the northern woods to mark the courage and
strength of a small girl who lived there long ago - a girl who saved her
people from a terrible disease by listening carefully to the whispering
snow, the rumbling ice, and the dancing northern lights. Illustrated
with paintings as graceful and delicate as the lady slipper itself, this
unforgettable retelling shows how a child's lost slippers became one of
nature's most lovely spring flowers.
