Inhaltsangabe

How do you make a garden grow? In this playful companion to the popular Tap the Magic Tree and Touch the Brightest Star, you will see how tiny seeds bloom into beautiful flowers. And by tapping, clapping, waving, and more, young readers can join in the action! Christie Matheson masterfully combines the wonder of the natural world with the interactivity of reading.

Beautiful collage-and-watercolor art follows the seed through its entire life cycle, as it grows into a zinnia in a garden full of buzzing bees, curious hummingbirds, and colorful butterflies. Children engage with the book as they wiggle their fingers to water the seeds, clap to make the sun shine after rain, and shoo away a hungry snail. Appropriate for even the youngest child, Plant the Tiny Seed is never the same book twice—no matter how many times you read it!

And for curious young nature lovers, a page of facts about seeds, flowers, and the insects and animals featured in the book is included at the end. Fans of Press Here, Eric Carle, and Lois Ehlert will find their next favorite book in Plant the Tiny Seed.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

There is magic in every tiny seed.

The seeds that come in little paper packets and those that fall from flowers and plants.

In every garden and every flowerpot, magic can grow.

With a little sunlight, a little water, and a little help from birds and worms and bees, a tiny seed sprouts, a plant grows, and a beautiful f lower blooms.

There is magic in every tiny seed.

And in this book, you become the magician.

How? Press the seed into the ground, wiggle your fingers to add water, clap to bring the sun.

And then . . .turn the page.

What can grow from one tiny seed?

Press, tap, wiggle, and jiggle to start the magic!

Press the seed—don’t be shy!

Wiggle your fingers to add some water.

Clap your hands to bring the sun.

Wow! A beautiful flower!
