Grow
JoAnn Early Macken, illustrated by Stephanie Fizer Coleman
A second-person narrative imagines children experiencing how living things change over time. It follows an acorn becoming an oak, a caterpillar becoming a monarch butterfly, a tadpole becoming a leopard frog, and young turtles, ducks, and deer growing into adults. The caterpillar sequence includes feeding on milkweed, forming a chrysalis, and later emerging as a butterfly. Digital illustrations with hand-painted textures show diverse children and caregivers observing the featured species.
