Written and illustrated by: Kadir Nelson.

Kadir Nelson, winner of the Caldecott Honor and the Coretta Scott King Author and Illustrator Awards, presents a resonant, gently humorous story about the power of even the smallest acts and the rewards of compassion and generosity.

With spare text and breathtaking oil paintings, IF YOU PLANT A SEED demonstrates not only the process of planting and growing for young children but also how a seed of kindness can bear sweet fruit. (From GoodReads.)
