This book walks students through the life cycle of a sunflower from seed to flower. It shows students how to carefully plant the sunflower as well as keep it maintained. The book does a great job showing each stage of growth for students to visually see and understand. I liked this book especially for a kinder or first grade class especially for the spring time when it is time to plant flowers. This book would be awesome to use as an instructional guide in creating an anchor chart of how to plant seeds. This would also spark conversation about how plants grow (photosynthesis) and how we can take care of them. This is great book to introduce younger kids into plants. ( )

This book goes through the process of a sunflower's life cycle. From when it is planted, to when it grows into a beautiful flower. ( )

This informative book teaches children how one small seed can grow into a large sunflower plant. It provides many detailed facts that help the young read gain the ability to grow a sunflower of their own if they choose to do so. ( )

Sunflower by Miela Ford is an appropriate book for students in pre-kindergarten through first grade. The book isn't as informative as the other books I've read about planting sunflowers. However, it's great for children to learn about the process of growing a sunflower as well as participate in an activity that requires them to grow their own sunflower and record the progress. ( )

A girl has a sunflower seed, and she plants it. The sunflower seed begins to grow and she takes care of it. Once the plant is big, there is a big yellow flower. There are also many sunflower seeds in the middle of the flower, and birds can eat from it. The book was simple, and I enjoyed it. This would be good book, to encourage students to grow their own sunflower seeds and learn about sunflower seeds. ( )
