Critical Reviews

"Wanna expand some preschooler's mind? First off, this really is a good book for their age range since it's one of those books that straddles 'board book' and 'picture book' with equal ease... As for the concept, it begins with a seed. 'A seed is growing inside an apple.' Turn the page. 'Which is eaten by a caterpillar.' Turn the page. 'Which is hiding from a bird.' And all this expands and expands and expands until you find yourself in space looking at Earth from a distance, 'Which looks like a seed in the universe.' Minds. Blown." -Betsy Bird, A Fuse 8 Production, SLJ.com
