I purchased this book for my three year old in the fall. He loves reading it, just like any of his story books and he is learning important lessons at the same time!

A step-by step science book of how seeds grow into pumpkins. The simple explanation of photosynthesis (without using that word) is well done, and the illustrations are beautiful. I have seen children learn various dinosaur names before they are old enough to read, so I think that "photosynthesis" might be a fun word for them -- the author did not really have to avoid it. The same goes for the first smooth leaves on the plant. "Cotyledon" is not any harder to pronounce than "tyrannosaurus," and might be a fun word for children to hear.

The back of the book has a science experiment to show how plants siphon water, and also instructions on how to make roasted pumpkin seeds. Ages 3-8.

I teach Pre-K (4 and 5 year olds) and this book was perfect for explaining the life cycle of the pumpkin in language easy for them to understand. Definitely a keeper for years to come for my classes!

I loved this book for my grandson because it is educational but fun for him to read.I always purchase my books from Amazon. I get the best price and they have any book i want.

This book conveys plenty of information with the feeling of a story being revealed. My grandchildren were interested the whole way through.
