Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Sink your teeth into the plants that feed the world--flowers, fruits, seeds, and all!
With its simple text and bright, appealing illustrations, this book is perfect for young readers learning about where their food comes from.
Clearly-labeled diagrams show the different parts of plants we use and eat--leaves of spinach and cabbage, the roots of carrot plants, and the wide variety of fruits, such as apples, berries, and tomatoes. Plants Feed Me explores the different types of seeds we eat-- beans, nuts, rice, and even how wheat is ground into flour and used to make many other types of food.
Smiling children pick fruits and vegetables, and learn how plants grow from seeds, stretching toward the sky for sun and into the earth for nutrients. This celebration of fruits, vegetables, and more is sure to get kids interested in what's on their plates!
"Watermelons are fruits. Cabbages are leaves. Walnuts are seeds. Carrots are roots. People eat many parts of plants. Even flowers!-- Provided by publisher.
