Product Description
A perfect companion to NorthWord's WHAT DO ROOTS DO?, this spirited text enumerates in riddle-form the many ways different kinds of seeds travel, whether by helicopter or rolling in the wind as a tumbleweed. Fun activities are included at the end to help readers discover the world of seeds up close. Gorgeous illustrations of seeds and plants and children enjoying them leap from the pages.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful introduction to nature's wonders   November 1, 2006

I am a former children's library assistant who was always looking for more non-fiction books for read-aloud during storytimes. This book would have been perfect! It is perfect! With a delicious sounding rhyming text, this books explores the miracle of seeds. The words just roll off the tongue delighting reader and listener alike. It's also a wonderful book for early science. This book is chock full of interesting facts, including a few I didn't know. The back of the book even offers fun activities for the budding naturalist or scientist. The illustrations match the text both with accuracy and humor (such as the dog stuck with those pesky burrs.)Author/poet, Heidi Roemer, has a gift for words and offers youngsters, teachers, librarians, and parents a wonderful resource for encouraging all to go out and explore nature. Oh, and I disagree with the recommended age for this book. I think it should be from 3 - 12.
