Book Post #13- Watermelon Seed by Greg Pizzoli


Geisel Award 2014

Pizzoli, G. (2013). The watermelon seed. New York, NY: Disney Hyperion Books.

The Watermelon Seed by Greg Pizzoli is a wonderful picturebook.  Little crocodile has always loved watermelon, but he has a fear of swallowing a seed.  One day the dreaded happens and he is so afraid that a watermelon will grow and vines will come out of his ears.  The illustrations are simple, but take us through poor crocodile's emotions until....burp......and out comes the seed!  A wonderful read aloud for young children.
