A garden’s life cycle, brought into little hands

A tiny seed’s growth into a zinnia gives this interactive picture book its simple framework. Tapping, clapping, wiggling fingers, and waving invite children to take part in actions connected to the garden’s changes, while collage-and-watercolor illustrations show bees, hummingbirds, butterflies, and a hungry snail among the flowers. The book also includes a closing page of facts about seeds, flowers, and the animals featured, adding a small nature-learning component to the shared reading experience.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Young children, especially those in the 4–8 age range, who enjoy books with actions to perform.
  • Families and educators seeking an interactive introduction to seeds, flowers, and garden wildlife.
  • Children curious about the life cycle of a flowering plant.

Book overview

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.
