A RHYMING JOURNEY THROUGH THE LIFE OF A SEED
The Secret of the Seed
What secrets are hiding inside one tiny seed?
Follow a seed from its quiet beginning beneath the soil as rain, sunshine, and time help it sprout, grow, and finally burst into bloom. Told in gentle rhyme and filled with colorful illustrations, The Secret of the Seed introduces young readers to the wonder of plant growth and the beautiful cycle that begins all over again.
FROM SEED TO FLOWER
Watch a tiny seed come to life.
Young readers follow each stage as the seed awakens, sprouts, grows leaves, and eventually blooms into a beautiful flower.
DISCOVER NATURE
Explore how plants grow and change.
Rain, sunshine, soil, bees, changing seasons, and time all become part of the journey as children discover the natural world around a growing plant. The bee/pollination portion is actually in the story, so we can legitimately sell that aspect.
RHYME & WONDER
Science told like a story.
Gentle rhymes and watercolor-style illustrations turn the plant life cycle into a warm read-aloud that encourages curiosity about the small wonders happening in nature.
