Charlotte Middleton, born in England, 1998 graduated from British University of Science and Technology. She was determined to be an illustrator since she was a child. Her first picture book, A Super Stubborn Tooth, was welcomed by readers, and then she published such picture books as Lucky Socks, Monster Pets and Enrique Begins School. Her paintings are playful and lovely, full of childlike interest and sense of the times, and the words and pictures are cleverly matched, which is deeply loved by children. Now she has become a picture book rookie that has attracted much attention.

Kalika is a little guinea pig. He lives in Dandelion Valley with his friends. They all like to eat dandelion leaves. They eat dandelion leaves every morning, noon and evening. Soon, there are fewer and fewer dandelions. Finally, there was only one dandelion left under the window where Kalika was eating. Kalika choked back her saliva and decided not to eat this dandelion. He went to the library to learn about dandelions and began to concentrate on planting them. When dandelion grows small white seeds, he takes dandelion to the top of the mountain and lets dandelion seeds fall in the whole dandelion valley. Since then, Kalika still likes to eat dandelion leaves, but he also likes another thing-planting dandelions.
