Customer Rating: 
Summary: Wonderful little book
Comment: My four year old grandson loves this book. We have been growing plants from seed on his windowsill and can't wait to try the experiment in this book.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Not bad for what it is
Comment: What this book is NOT, to be clear, is a good read-aloud. It's tedious if used that way.
What it *is* is a good, step-by-step instruction of a basic science project for little ones. If you use it that way, reading every step as you go through it and not before, it's wonderful.
I find the reading age suggested on this book (3-6) to be a little young. Try 6-8 instead.

Summary: Great Science Project for Little Learners
Comment: If you are looking for a simple "experiment" for the budding scientist in your home, this is an excellent book. As you read this with your young child, he/ she will certainly be inspired to do what the kids in the book are doing; planting a bean seed and watching it grow.
As you read along with the story and follow-up with actually doing the experiment your child becomes part of the story, waiting and watching as his (or her) own seeds develop. Children learn the essential elements of growing seeds. Once you have successfully grown your first bean plants, there is a page at the rear of the book that guides you through additional "experiment" ideas to go even deeper.
This book, because it is on the Stage 1 level, is a bit less informative than the other Let's Read and Find Out Science books that we already have in our growing collection which are primarily Stage 2, but certainly worthwhile in that it guides parent and child through a very simple Science project.
Basic concepts covered in this book in addition to the seed growing are:
1. Counting (stage 1 is geered toward preschool to early kindergarten)
2. Patience (in that you must wait days to see things begin to happen)
3. The ability to follow instructions (the steps to perform the experiments)

Summary: Seeds for little kids
Comment: This book is a lil juvenille... not as information. But it covers the basics... I wished it was a bit more scientific.
Customer Rating:
Summary: My five year old enjoyed this book
Comment: We enjoy the "Let's - Read - & - Find - Out" series of books. This one is a good addition, explaining seeds on my five year old son's level of understanding . Something that many adult writers of childrens' science books sometimes aren't very good at getting across. It is in my child's library at school. The books in this series are informative and interesting for their target audiences. The illustrations are well done and add to understanding the process being described. They make it easier to follow for kids.
