"But I'm not like other seeds," said the tiny seed with a sniffle. "I'm a floater, not a grower." "You are a grower," whispered the Wind, "because that's what seeds do--they grow." No matter where it... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I got this book when it first came out and it blew me away. The message and the illustration is perfect. Both my kids (ages 11 and 8) are in love with it. I took my copy to my sons third grade teacher...*giggling*...couldn't get it back from her for almost a month, she loved it so much. I purchased a copy for her as a gift and she plans on using it in her classroom teaching and sharing it with the other teachers from the school. Can't wait to see what Stephanie Bloom comes up with next.

I was sent this book by a friend and absolutely love it! The story is so sweet, the illustrations are stunning, and the message is meaningful for young and old alike. The anology of a seed looking for its home is something that we can apply to so many journeys in life. My two little boys LOVE the book and refer to it as their "favorite!" The illustrations are so vivid, magical, and emotional. A perfect gift for expectant parents, new babies, children, or even high school graduates. Also, a great book for school teachers who might want to teach a springtime lesson and have the kids plant their own little seeds. Superb!

I LOVE this book!!!! The message is inspirational and entertaining and perfect for young children, but also for any of us (young and old) who are trying to connect with the world around us. I plan on buying copies to give as gifts - baby showers, birthdays, but also for graduation and other "life occassions." What a great book!
