This is the perfect book for children (and grown-ups!) to share at the beginning or the end of the day, or just to dip into.

"I Am The Seed That Grew The Tree is a magical book for children and adults to enjoy together. A beautiful and unusual selection of poems boldly illustrated. It is a new favourite!" - Sarah Crossan, Irish Children's Laureate and CILIP Carnegie Medal Winner

"'A real Hymn to nature.' says Nosy Crow of this outstanding poetry anthology and I wholeheartedly agree. Award-winning anthologist Waters has selected a nature poem for every day of the year, spanning over 400 years of poetry. Each page is illustrated in full colour by rising star Preston-Gannon, stylish and distinctive but with real child appeal. My preview copy has enthusiastically been claimed by my daughter who is reading a poem each night. A book to share, educate, entertain and to treasure." - The Bookseller

"Stylish and distinctive but with real child appeal. This will make a gorgeous gift; a book to share, educate, entertain and treasure." - Fiona Noble, The Bookseller's Buyers Guide

"I am besotted with I am the Seed. It's the kind of book every household should own." - Florentyna Martin, Children's Book Buyer for Waterstones
