    Mama Makes Books Little, Brown Nut: A fact-filled picture book

    5 in stock

    Book SynopsisStart Small, Think Big is a series that sets young readers on a journey of discovery, beginning from the small and familiar to new areas of knowledge where they really have to think big! Little Brown Nut starts small, with a large, weighty fruit falling from the tallest tree in the Amazon rainforest. Inside is a little brown Brazil nut, surrounded by 19 others. It sits and waits for an agouti, a rodent with teeth so strong that it can free the nut from its hard casing. The story of the Brazil nut tree and the agouti is told clearly and carefully, with facts about germination, photosynthesis, seed dispersal. The narrative progresses in a way that builds understanding and the gorgeous illustrations bring the story and the science to life. Thinking BIG, the book shows why the rainforest is important to local people and the wider world. A big fold-out has a world map, an at-a-glance lifecycle, and a Rainforest I-Spy of the animals to take children back into the book.Trade ReviewI really enjoyed that the story follows a nut, a familiar object, all the way through its various journeys and cycle of life. I haven't seen a non-fiction book like this before and I think [the titles in the Start Small, Think Big series] are really special and a great addition to the bookshelf. I honestly can't wait to share these books with my class and use these across a series of different lessons, from Science and Understanding the World through to English lessons and looking at different text types. I am looking forward to seeing more of these. -- Lauren Maidman, Teacher * ReadingZone *By thinking big, and through science-based words and pictures full of information and wonder, the book shows why the rainforest is important to local people and the wider world. * Lancashire Post *November 2023 Book of the Month It’s a fascinating story, told in a way that will catch young reader’s attention and fire their interest in the rainforest. * LoveReading4Kids.co.uk *With captivating illustrations it’s an immersive journey into the rainforest complimented by insightful captions and perfect for young readers exploring science topics like tree life cycles and rainforest habitats. -- Scott Evans * The Reader Teacher *Table of ContentsTextured cover with a die-cut egg, 28 pages including a fold-out map of South America, an I-Spy game, a lifecycle illustration of a Brazil nut tree, and fascinating facts.
