Girassol means "sunflower" in Portuguese, the language of Brazil. It is pronounced jih·ruh·sol. Sunflowers bring warmth, light, and happiness to all who look at them, just like children!
On cloudy days, sunflowers turn to face each other, to give each other energy. This is the Girassol way! Click on the YouTube video to hear a beautiful Portuguese song about girassols!
