**Books for Topics Recommended Reads - 50 Best Books for Year 1 (Children Aged 5-6)**

Follow the journey of a fluffy, flying seed as it is carried by the wind and lands safely in a meadow, the perfect place to grow, providing a fascinating and beautiful insight into the world of plants and their importance to us.
This book will feed the curiosity of the youngest of readers who are:

  • keen to know how the world works
  • fascinated by nature 
  • enjoy learning new information

The story is carefully written for children learning to read, with additional factual captions for more advanced readers.
And here’s the WOW-factor – a large fold-out world map at the end, with diagrams and a fun I-Spy game to take children back into the book to find and identify animals in the pictures.
Fluffy, Flying Seed is part of the Start Small, Think Big series of science-based picture books:
  • Aimed at children aged 4 to 8
  • Covers KS1 primary science subjects that children learn at school 
  • High-quality educational content, beautifully illustrated

Fluffy, Flying Seed explores how a dandelion grows, protects itself, reproduces and transforms from a bright yellow flower into a delicate white ball of fluffy, flying seeds. The book focuses on temperate meadowland and shows the life cycle of  wildflowers and how they are important for native animals and insects to grow and thrive.

Small, Sparkling Raindrop (Southeast Asia/wetlands and the water cycle)

Small, Speckled Egg (polar regions and the life cycle of an Arctic tern)

Little, Brown Nut (Amazon rainforest and the life cycle of a Brazil Nut tree)

Tiny, Floating Coral (Great Barrier Reef and the life cycle of coral)

Fluffy, Flying Seed (meadowlands and the life cycle of a dandelion)
