The Tiny Seed (The World of Eric Carle) (1970 original; edició 1987)

Story follows the life span of a seed, as it blows of the flower in autumn and ends up being a flower than spreading its seeds the next autumn. Story is perfect to introduce students about the life cycle of plants with easy to read text and great visuals. ( )

Carried from its flower home by the autumn wind, a tiny seed travels around the world. Its journey is perilous, and the reader learns the fate of fellow seeds: they can fall into the ocean, be burned by the sun, or be eaten by birds. Even those seeds that land and begin to grow are in danger of being stepped on or picked. Against the odds, however, this tiny seed survives to grow into a grand, beautiful flower, ready, in turn, to send its seeds out into the world on the wind.

This book is about seeds from a flower and the adventures they go on through the seasons. This book would be good a science lesson ( )

Eric Carle’s classic story of the life cycle of a flower is told through the adventures of a tiny seed. Everyone will cheer for the seed’s progress as it floats across the sky, nestles in the ground, and finally grows into the giant flower it was always meant to be.

With the dazzling collage illustrations and lively text. ( )

I really like this book for kids, it shows the way a seed travels and what conditions it can survive. The book has nice illustrations and a good story line. ( )
