Each book features a large foldout illustration on the final pages. \u003ci\u003eFluffy Flying Seed \u003c\/i\u003estarts small, with a tiny dandelion seed being carried by the wind and landing safely in a meadow, the perfect place to grow. This is its story: how it grows, protects itself from frost, reproduces, and becomes a food source for many creatures. There are facts about germination, photosynthesis, seed dispersal, parts of a plant, and food chains. The narrative progresses in a way that builds understanding, and the gorgeous illustrations bring the story and the science to life. Thinking big, the book shows why this much-maligned wildflower is important to animals in the spring, and why it is so successful at surviving and spreading. A big foldout has a world map showing the temperate regions where it thrives, an illustrated life cycle, and a \u003ci\u003eMeadow I-Spy\u003c\/i\u003e to take readers back through the book to deepen the learning experience. This book features a textured die-cut hole cover and a large foldout poster at the back of the book.","brand":"Mary Auld","offers":[{"title":"Hardback Cloth over boards","offer_id":48942440907050,"sku":"9781636551272","price":20.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0112\/1065\/3760\/files\/BNCImageAPI_6437b858-aee5-4d46-8632-13859d993c4d.jpg?v=1722086336","url":"https:\/\/onceuponabookstore.ca\/products\/9781636551272","provider":"Once Upon a Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
