In my class, all of the students read the book Seedfolks by Paul Fleischman. It was a great book about how different people of very different backgrounds can work together to make a vacant lot a beautiful garden filled with fruits, vegetables, and plants. The book took us about three days to read and when we were done reading it we did a very fun project.

      The project was to create two seed packets. One of the seed packets we made had to tie a person in are life to a plant. I compared my mother to a moon flower because a moon flower is the brightest of all the flowers and my mom’s personality is happy and bright.  In the other seed packet we had to tie a person in our book Seedfolks to a plant. The character I choose was Curtis and I compared him to a tomato. The reason why is because he planted tomatoes in the public garden because he knew his ex girlfriend loved them and he wanted to try to win back her heart
