A cute little book telling about the life cycle of the Daisy and also with nifty little facts in every section.  Like most plants the flower starts with a seed that comes from the parent plant, daisys are no exception for this.  If the seed grows it depends on a few things.  Not all wild daisy seeds will grow, but if in a guarden the person can make sure that the seed gets the right about of light, water, soild, and warmth.  When all the conditions are right the seed will start to grow.  Root grow out of it first and soon it will start to grow a stem and evern leaves and as it grows the plan and roots get bigger and stronger.  With all those things needed for the plant to grow it will keep grown and soon sprout buds and then blum into the beautiful daisy.  After they bloom insects will come by and pollonate the flower, which is needed so that the seeds in the flower will be able to grow other flowers once this one dies.  When the flower withers and dies it drops the sees, and the life cycle of the daisy starts over again.

I would recomend this book for a class when they are learning about plants and flowers and when they start learning how things grow.

I dont think that there is anything wrong with this book.

I learned from this book.  It is really neat how you may think you know all there is to know about something, but there is always something new to be learned.
