I really enjoyed that the story follows a nut, a familiar object, all the way through its various journeys and cycle of life. I haven't seen a non-fiction book like this before and I think [the titles in the Start Small, Think Big series] are really special and a great addition to the bookshelf. I honestly can't wait to share these books with my class and use these across a series of different lessons, from Science and Understanding the World through to English lessons and looking at different text types. I am looking forward to seeing more of these.

By thinking big, and through science-based words and pictures full of information and wonder, the book shows why the rainforest is important to local people and the wider world.

With captivating illustrations it’s an immersive journey into the rainforest complimented by insightful captions and perfect for young readers exploring science topics like tree life cycles and rainforest habitats.

- Scott Evans, The Reader Teacher

We particularly like learning new vocabulary and that it’s filled with facts about how something as small as a single brazil nut is so interconnected with both its local habitat and the wider world. An interactive non-fiction text that immediately captures children’s interests as well as one that aids learning in topics about rainforests, life cycles and habitats.

*Books for Topics Recommended Reads: 50 Best Books for Year 1** Start Small, Think Big is a series that sets young readers on a journey of discovery, beginning from the small and familiar to new areas of knowledge where they really have to think big! Little Brown Nut starts small, with a large, weighty fruit falling from the tallest tree in the Amazon rainforest. Inside is a little brown Brazil nut, surrounded by 19 others. It sits and waits for an agouti, a rodent with teeth so strong that it can free the nut from its hard casing. The story of the Brazil nut tree and the agouti is told clearly and carefully, with facts about germination, photosynthesis, seed dispersal. The narrative progresses in a way that builds understanding and the gorgeous illustrations bring the story and the science to life. Thinking BIG, the book shows why the rainforest is important to local people and the wider world. A big fold-out has a world map, an at-a-glance lifecycle, and a Rainforest I-Spy of the animals to take children back into the book.
