Reviews for The Little Seed:
"The Little Seed incorporates poetry with plant science in such a beautiful manner - very motivating, and will help open the eyes of eager young scientists. Weaves enchantment with science and will help open the door to lasting interest in the natural world. Think of the possibilities for it becoming the 'bones for poems, science lessons, and illustrations.'"

Adele Lamothe has introduced us to our new favorite friend. Thanks to her spirited raindrops named Splish and Splash, they watered the ground allowing The Little Seed to bloom. Through sweet and simple rhyme, The Little Seed follows the journey of an aspirational seed with dreams as high as the sky. Readers will discover the seed life cycle and the power of self-belief in achieving dreams.
