A Seed Grows (HC)

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.

Lively illustrations offer a close-up view of each step of the growing process and the ways in which flowers and seeds depend on other creatures. The title features a fold-out spread of a full-grown sunflower and back matter explaining the science of plant life cycles.

Written and illustrated by Antoinette Portis.

Hardcover (English). Recommended for: Ages 3-6 years.
