Seeds - Nature's Intrepid Miracles is a stunning volume that serves as an illustrated herbarium, a work of popular science, and an art book, all in one. It beautifully showcases the incredible diversity and miraculous properties of nearly 150 seeds from across the globe. Each page features a single seed, brought to life through exquisite illustrations that capture its intricate details and unique characteristics.

Seeds - Nature's Intrepid Miracles is organized by the ways in which seeds are dispersed—by wind, water, or human and animal interaction—the book features brief, engaging texts that explain how nature has perfectly designed each seed for its specific role. Readers will encounter the brilliant green spiral of the alfalfa seed, which scatters far and wide when grown in the wild. They will find new fascination in familiar seeds like the sugar maple’s jewel-like propellers and the wild carrot’s dome of tiny white flowers. They’ll discover how one of the largest seeds—the coconut—has a hollow, waterproof shell that enables it to journey across oceans. And they’ll marvel at the fearsome horns of the water chestnut, which anchors itself in the mud to germinate.

This celebration of life and growth is perfect for all readers curious about the natural world, combining scientific accuracy with artistic beauty to create a reading experience that will encourage further learning as well as an interest in protecting our fragile, miraculous planet.
