The Whole Green World

(4) PS Illustrated by Elisa Kleven. "I've got a little sack of seeds. / (Fat and slick like glassy beads.) / Got a little sack of seeds / to plant the whole round world." A girl plants some seeds and sings about the natural world in a series of rhymed verses. The repetitive stanzas don't quite live up to the jubilant illustrations, which are filled with animals and charming details.
