Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
Gr. 4^-7, younger for use with an adult. The reader will find this attractive book useful for reports or, as the Take Along Guide series title implies, as a nature guide. Each page is devoted to one plant and its fruit. After a brief introduction to berries, nuts, and seeds as the fruit of a plant, Burns looks at specific fruit, one to a page, including raspberries, acorns, pecans, juniper berries, cattails, and thistle blossoms. The format is crisp, and the writing clear; each page features lovely watercolor pictures of the fruit and the plant or tree it comes from and information about what it looks like, where to find it, and who eats it. Interesting activities such as planting a seed garden and making berry watercolors round out a very nice treatment. Ilene Cooper

This book gives general information about a various different selections of nuts, seeds, and berries. It is wonderful, my 8 year old sister found it to be quite fun and learned much from it. This book would be great for any child wanting to learn and have fun. I would suggest it for ages 5-11

This review is from: Berries, Nuts, And Seeds (Take Along Guides) (Paperback)
Love! Love! Love! This series! I'm getting them all if that tells you anything. These pack a lot of info in a fun unique way. My kids carry them everywhere and have started really "Investigating". I have a lot of nature books but this series is my favorite so far. My children are 5 years apart and it works just as well for both of them while making me happy with real facts.
