At Wrapped in Foil Blog<\/a> today we have the lovely picture book Seeds Move!<\/em> by Robin Page.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Written in the increasingly popular two-level text, Seeds Move!<\/em> explores many of the ways seeds move or disperse.<\/p>\n

The simpler, “story” text repeats rhythmically from page to page:<\/p>\n

A seed hitchhikes.
\nA seed shoots.
\nA seed catapults…<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

A paragraph of denser, detailed text explains the specific examples shown in each illustration.<\/p>\n

And what beautiful illustrations they are. It is easy to see why Robin Page received a Caldecott Honor in 2004 for What Do You Do With a Tail Like This?<\/em><\/p>\n

If you are looking for a nonfiction picture book about seed dispersal, look no further than Seeds Move! <\/em>Young readers will plant themselves in their chairs when they open this book.<\/p>\n
