"A Bloom of Friendship: The Story of the Canadian Tulip Festival" by Anne Renaud tells the heartwarming story of the special bond between Canada and the Netherlands, rooted in the aftermath of World War II. The narrative unfolds through the eyes of a young girl who witnesses the arrival of thousands of tulips sent as a gift from the Dutch royal family to thank Canadians for their role in liberating the Netherlands. As the girl learns about friendship, remembrance, and the beauty of the tulip festival, the story captures the spirit of gratitude and international camaraderie, celebrating the resilience of communities.
