Before the Seed: How Pollen Moves

By Susannah Buhrman-Deever

Illustrated by Gina Triplett, Matt Curtius

A vibrant and engaging fact-packed non-fiction picture book all about pollination from MIT Kids Press.

We live in a world full of green all grown from seeds. But what happens before the seed? From bees and bats to beetles and hummingbirds, this lyrical non-fiction picture book introduces readers to the many creatures that aid in flower pollination, and shows us the sophisticated mechanisms flowering plants have developed in order to reproduce. Wild and wonderful artwork brings pollination to life, while fascinating and accessible sidebar explanations ensure teachers will love this book as much as curious kids. Back matter includes more information on flower anatomy, how to support local pollinators in the garden, and the dangers that global warming poses to pollinator species.
