Description
Bumpy, striped, twisted, smooth, round, and wonderfully strange, gourds come in an incredible variety of shapes and colors. Filled with beautiful real-life photographs and engaging nonfiction facts, GOURDS! introduces curious readers to these fascinating fruits and the way they grow from seeds into vines, flowers, and colorful mature gourds.
Discover how gourds grow, how bees and other insects help pollinate their flowers, when they are ready to harvest, why their shells become hard as they dry, and how people have used gourds for thousands of years.
Inside you'll discover:
How gourds are related to squash, pumpkins, cucumbers, and other members of the cucurbit family How seeds sprout into fast-growing vines with curling tendrils that wrap around nearby supports How flowers are pollinated and develop into gourds that slowly ripen on the vine Why gourds come in so many unusual shapes, colors, textures, and sizes How dried gourds can be carved, painted, and made into decorations, containers, tools, and musical instruments This large 8.25 x 8.25 photo book features beautiful full-color images printed on premium paper, making it a wonderful way for curious readers to enjoy a focused, screen-free exploration of gourds from seed to harvest.
