Plants Feed Me - Paperback

by Lizzy Rockwell (Author)

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
