Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Each of the three seeds in this story--a cherry stone in Iran, an acacia seed in Australia and a lotus seed in China--survives a difficult journey through flood, fire or drought, then sprouts and ultimately flourishes.
"Each of the three seeds in this story--a cherry seed in the MIddle East, an acacia seed in Australia, and a lotus seed in Asia--survives a difficult journey through flood, fire, or drought, then sprouts (in the case of the lotus seed, a hundred years later) and flourishes. To author Stephie Morton, nature's powerful forces are a metaphor for the hardships faced by displaced children. Kids, like seeds, thrive when given a chance. Stephie's verses and Nicole Wong's art make a picture book to treasure"--Jacket.
