A gorgeous picture book that provides some very basic info about plants and seeds. Written in a conversational manner. For example, "When you eat a sandwich, consider this: The bread is not much more than the seeds of a grass called wheat, ground up into flour and mixed with some water and a little bit of yeast." The book layout and design are varied and photographs are bright and clear. This is an interest building book that may lead to more in depth study. Karen Woodworth Roman, Children's Science Book Review

Young readers receive a clear primer on how seeds grow, how they differ in size and shape, and how they perform differently in nature with the same goal in mind: to produce growing plants. From different shapes and sizes of seeds in fruit and flowers to trees and plants, excellent large-size color photos and very easy explanations makes Seeds useful for grades 1-4.

this book has beautiful and detailed pictures that children can discuss. It is a bit lengthy, so wouldn't recommend for under 4 years.

Very nice book for children around age seven to ten or eleven.

It is a great book! Beautiful pictures.
