These new books in the Watch It Grow series (8 new titles) follow the growth of various kinds of plants, as well any fruit (or acorns) they produce. Each book begins by introducing the final product, whether a fruit or the tree itself. It then asks where the plant comes from and the conditions it needs in order to grow. Only after that does the author trace the plant's life cycle. Tiny seeds in Strawberry become seedlings that develop runners, leaves, flowers, and fruit. Simple photos illustrate each step of the process. Some of these photos recur in the life-cycle diagram or the photo glossary at the end of the book. The books seem largely intended for classroom use, with reading-activity suggestions for parents and teachers in the front matter. Whatever the setting, young readers will likely enjoy learning about where their favorite fruits and trees come from.--Miriam Aronin Copyright 2019 Booklist
