The darling, dancing Flora is back, and this time she's found two new friends: a pair of peacocks! But amidst the fanning feathers and mirrored movements, Flora realizes that the push and pull between three friends can be a delicate dance. Will this trio find a way to get back in step? In the third book featuring Flora and her feathered friends, Molly Idle's gorgeous art combines with clever flaps to reveal that no matter the challenges, true friends will always find a way to dance, leap, and soar—together.

Reviews
PreS-Gr 1—Idle's story introduces a new dance—one of friendship. Flora, holding her Japanese fan, greets two peacocks. However, only one becomes interested by her presence, which inspires jealousy within its comrade. The dance between the characters creates drama that leaves Flora upset. But a graceful end supports the notion that a duo can be a trio, as the peacocks apologize and unite to restore Flora's broken fan. The visual narrative depicts the polarizing emotions that can ensue when it comes to adopting new friends. Although this is a wordless picture book, movable flaps and the more than noticeable facial and body expressions help young readers understand the conflict. Through blues, greens, and yellows, Idle depicts lovely peacocks, and the white backdrop creates a perfect stage for this gentle dance of kinship. The grand finale foldout is a showstopping, if somewhat fragile, element. VERDICT A fun and flashy selection for all collections.—Briana Moore, School Library Journal
