Rosie and Emma Plant a Seed M. Nicole Van Dam

A joyous and beautifully illustrated children's book about a young girl Emma and her Leonberger dog Rosie, who find a mysterious seed and plant it. As the mysterious seed grows, so do Emma and Rosie's adventures and the delightful, curious characters they meet, including Sigmund Owl and a very cheeky sparrow. This unique book is a lovely way to share the wonders of gardening and nature. Also important, this book teaches about teamwork and friendship. Truly a lovely children's book, and as you turn the pages you will enjoy the more than 60 colorfully and happily engaging illustrations. Written in rhyme with enchanting characters, this book is as much a treat to read aloud as it is to see. If you are seeking to share the joy of the garden and an appreciation of nature and animals with toddlers and young children, then this is the ideal book. Lovingly illustrated and warmly written in sing-song rhyme, with a Dr. Seuss type rhythmic quality, this book will delight young readers and is a fun bed-time read-aloud as well.
