AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Sister (Vy) and brother (Ty) are happy the summer holidays have arrived. The holidays are heralded by the blooming of the flowers of the flamboyant tree which is also known as poinsettia. During the holidays the children enjoy many activities. Vy makes butterflies from the flamboyant petals and Ty makes kites and catches insects. As the poinsettia flowers fade the children know that summer is coming to an end and it will soon be time for a new school year. (Source: Book)
