Publisher's Synopsis
"Carrots are a great snack, and they are also a plant's root! Part of the group called root vegetables, carrots grow underground for months before they become the sweet, crunchy veggie we put on salads and dip in hummus. In this book, readers follow along as carrot seeds are planted in soil, watered, and exposed to the sun, and as they grow into orange, yellow, purple, and white veggies! Age-appropriate detail and vocabulary support readers just beginning to read independently as well as the Next Generation Science Standards"--.
