A seed grows by Antoinette Portis
"A seed falls, And settles into the ground, And the Sun shines, And the rain comes down, And the seed grows…" To understand how a seed becomes a sunflower, you have to peek beneath the soil and wait patiently as winding roots grow, a stalk inches out of the earth, and new seeds emerge among blooming petals. With evocative and lively illustrations, A Seed Grows offers a close-up view of each step of this process and the ways in which flowers and seeds depend on other creatures, with a striking fold-out spread of a full-grown sunflower and additional material at the back of the book explaining the science of plant life cycles. The final quiz and suggested activities are a fun way to re-inforce what has been learnt.
