Description
Sam Plants a Sunflower by Kate Petty is a delightful story about a young boy named Sam who adores big, yellow sunflowers. Encouraged by his friends, Worm and Ladybird, Sam decides to plant his own sunflower seeds in his garden.
Join Sam on his gardening journey as he observes the growth of his sunflowers. The book features interactive elements, such as fun flaps to lift that reveal the underground happenings and a surprising big sunflower pop-up.
The gentle narrative is combined with simple facts that help explain the process of plant growth, inspiring children to step outside and try their hand at growing sunflowers, guided by helpful tips.
Illustrated by Axel Scheffler, the renowned artist behind The Gruffalo, this new nature series from the National Trust is a treasured collection for the whole family. Other titles in the series include: Tilly Plants a Tree.
