Hardcover. Condition: Good. Nelson, Kadir (illustrator). Illustrated. Product DescriptionThe bestselling book about the power of one kind act from Caldecott Medal and Coretta Scott King Award winner Kadir Nelson.Timeless and delectable.-School Library JournalIf you plant a carrot seed . . . a carrot will grow.If you plant a cabbage seed . . . cabbage will grow.But what happens if you plant a seed of kindness . . . or selfishness?With spare text and breathtaking oil paintings, If You Plant a Seed demonstrates not only the process of planting and growing for young children but also how a seed of kindness can bear sweet fruit.Kadir Nelson's acclaimed books include The Undefeated, winner of the Caldecott Medal as the most distinguished picture book of the year, Heart and Soul: The Story of America and African Americans, and Moses: When Harriet Tubman Led Her People to Freedom.From School Library JournalPreS-Gr 2-A fuzzy, brown rabbit and a tiny notch-eared mouse plant tomato, carrot, and cabbage seeds and then wait for the plants to grow and produce. As they bide their time, the two sit in the rain, nap, and read books. Readers will notice the sky beginning to fill with birds, which the rabbit and mouse don't see until the fruits-or vegetables-of their labor are ready to eat. Then five winged creatures descend and look expectantly, in a priceless illustration, at the two farmers that try to protect their bounty from the intruders. A verbal argument and scuffle ensue until they all reach an understanding. After the seed of cooperation is planted among the seven characters, peace reigns and friendship grows. Nelson's charmingly realistic illustrations skillfully show the passage of time and humorously accurate emotions and body language. The textures shown in the fur and feathers and the small details in the large oil on canvas paintings create images for study (and framing). The message, so clearly read in the illustrations, is a universal truth-you reap what you sow and when shared with others, your joy will be magnified. VERDICT A timeless and delectable picture book choice.-Maryann H. Owen, Children's Literature Specialist, Mt. Pleasant, WIReviewNelson adeptly balances whimsical, naturalistic, and instructional ideas to create a story that satisfies on multiple levels. - Publishers Weekly (starred review)A timeless and delectable picture book choice. - School Library JournalThough the message is as old as time, its delivery here is fresh and sweet as August corn. - Kirkus ReviewsFrom the Back CoverIf you plant a carrot seed . . . a carrot will grow.If you plant a lettuce seed . . . lettuce will grow.But what happens if you plant a seed of kindness . . . or selfishness?Beloved award-winning author-illustrator Kadir Nelson presents a resonant, gently humorous story about the power of even the smallest acts and the rewards of compassion and generosity.About the AuthorKadir Nelson won the 2012 Coretta Scott King Author Award and Illustrator Honor for Heart and Soul: The Story of America and African Americans.
