From a Tiny Seed to a Mighty Tree: How Plants Grow

How does an acorn become a mighty oak tree? What does a tiny sunflower seed need to grow into a tall, yellow flower? Using examples of familiar plants (including vegetables), readers will investigate what seeds need in order to grow into plants. They will discover the different ways in which plants disperse their seeds, and explore how many of the foods we eat are actually types of seeds. Look for the download button throughout the book.
