Book Reviews of The Tiny Seed (Aladdin Picture Books)
Book Review: An eye-catching exploration of the life cycle of plants
Summary: 5 Stars
Eric Carle is well known for his fictional accounts of lives of mini-beasts but in The Tiny Seed he unravels the complex life history of plants. This is botany - not in a nutshell - but in a seed pod. He doesn't 'name' the seed or make it into a 'person'. Yet the reader immediately makes a connection with this living being. It is alive in a very real and exciting way. All that potential is held within the seed and as conditions are right, the life is released. It's not a new story but it is expressed in words which zing with anticipation and delight. All bound together with Carle's trademark illustrations, mixing colours and media to entice you further and further into the book. For young readers and adults sharing books with children, this book is a feast for all the senses. Enjoy!
