Fluffy, Flying Seed starts small, with a tiny dandelion seed being carried by the wind and landing safely in a meadow, the perfect place to grow. This is its story, how it grows, protects itself from frost, reproduces and becomes a food source for many creatures. There are facts about germination, photosynthesis, seed dispersal, parts of a plant, and food chains. The narrative progresses in a way that builds understanding and the illustrations bring the story and the science to life.
Thinking big, the book shows why this much maligned wildflower is important for animals in the spring, and why it is so successful at surviving and spreading. A big fold-out has a world map showing the temperate regions where it thrives, an illustrated life cycle, and a Meadow I-Spy to take children back into the book.
