Gracie and Grandma are back in their third adventure. Gracie brings Grandma a present, an itsy, bitsy seed in a pot. What will it grow to be? Only Gracie knows the secret. Gracie and Grandma let their imaginations run wild thinking of what could be growing in the pot. Is it a cow or balloon plant? Maybe its a monster plant and only Gracie can save us! In the end, Gracie and Grandma make tomato soup from the tomato plant theyve grown together.

Iben Sandemose is one of Scandonavia's most popular children's book authors. Her brilliant pairings of whimsical stories and equally fanciful illustrations won her the Oslo Art Prize in 2004.
PreSchool-Grade 2–In this installment, spunky and imaginative Gracie presents her equally exuberant grandmother with a surprise–an itsy, bitsy seed. But what will it grow into? As the plant gets larger and larger, Grandma incorrectly guesses that it is a banana, lemon, fried mackerel, balloon, jungle, cow, or ghost tree until she spots a large red dot growing at the top and shouts: A big tomato! What else? Gracie shouts back and suggests that they use it to make tomato soup. The simple yet expressive text, in a large, bold typeface, perfectly complements the wacky, exaggerated, dazzlingly bright colored ink and marker cartoon illustrations. Youngsters with a taste for the offbeat will embrace this book, which could easily add energy and spirit to a plant-, food-, or grandparent–themed storytime.–Rachel Kamin, North Suburban Synagogue Beth El, Highland Park, IL
