If You Hold a Seed by Elly MacKay is a beautiful book. The pictures are stunning. There is a short YouTube video describing how she makes the pictures and it is amazing the time and detail that she puts into each page. It is the story of a small boy that plants a seed and watches it grow into a large tree. As I read this book at school this week the kids enjoyed looking out the window to search for buds on trees and sprouts of flowers. If You Hold a Seed is a nominee for this year's Blue Spruce Award.
