An endearing picture book about a budding young artist who learns to navigate criticism, trust her imagination, and listen to her own artistic voice.

An extraordinary flower takes root in Ella's imagination, and she can't wait to get it down on paper. But when her classmates question and judge her drawing, Ella's excitement dissolves into doubt. How could she have been so wrong about something she felt so passionately about? Then she sees another friend drawing his own unique vision, and his confidence helps her find her own. Her final flower is even more wonderful than what she first imagined, and her journey inspires other classmates to celebrate their own innate talents, as well.
 
Drawn from the Heart is a story about the power of imagination, the dangers of trying too hard to please others, and trusting your inner knowing. It encourages children to pursue their creativity, even if they make "mistakes," and to gain confidence in their own views.
