It is a five star journey; an eye-opening odyssey that changes the way you feel about seeds; fruits; plants and spices. I have shared this with my very young children and they have been fascinated at the photos. The information in this book is unlike any other gardening book or book about plants that I have ever read and has given me an appreciation of the intricacies and complicated nature of any seed. Teri Dunn Chace uses clear; vivid language and presents the seed to you in a way you have never seen before. The highly beautiful photographs; compliment the text perfectly. Its a coffee table book; a textbook and a picture book all in one. You dont have to be a gardener to like this one!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. This is a fascinating book.By loretta willardSeeds are fascinating structures. They house genetic data which carries the past into the future and perpetuates a vital life form. This book gives readers a chance to see inside and appreciate the complex processes that bring forth that life force and then re-encapsulates it for the next generation. There are so many forms of seeds. They become activated by many different climate effects and associations with animals who depend of them for food while providing dispersal. This is a fascinating book. Consider it as a gift of insight and source of enlightenment.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Beautiful!By W. W.
