Amelia and Paco love eating snacks and suddenly run out of Marshmallows! Amelia recalls growing an apple tree from science class and decides to grow a marshmallow tree. This story takes you on their journey. Do you think their tree will grow? Do you think they can get their treats before they get too hungry?

The illustration is a 10/10. This book was cute, and enlightening and contains a super fun fact about marshmallows at the end which the scientist in me appreciated very much.

Amelia and her friend Paco, a polar bear, love 'chasing cotton candy clouds and sliding down slippery ice cream slides'. They especially enjoy marshmallows, so they're upset when they run out of them. Amelia suggests that they plant a marshmallow tree, but they have trouble when it won't grow...

This is a great story to read to any child, with bright, colourful pictures. There is an educational aspect to it, as well. I highly reommend this for parents of young children, with one proviso - polar bears are not cute and cuddly creatures like Paco!

I received this free ebook from NetGalley in return for an honest review.

Cute and quirky little story. I loved the illustrations. I can see this in children’s classrooms for all small children.

Filled with humor, sugar, and a sprinkle of school knowledge, this charming tale not only entertains but also encourages young minds to embrace imagination and think outside the marshmallow box.

I homeschool my 5 year old and we had just finished Learning about growing plants in science. This book was a super cute way to talk again about what all plants need to grow and thrive. He liked the fact that it was make believe and laughed at the idea of a marshmallow tree!

Get ready for a sugar-coated escapade, my fellow munchkins, because How to Grow a Marshmallow Tree is the dessert-themed adventure we all need!

With a sprinkle of school smarts, a dash of sugar, and some dentist jokes that'll make you giggle, Amelia and Paco take you on a wild ride. This book is not just a treat for the taste buds but a feast for the imagination – it's like a marshmallow-flavored dream that'll have you craving both sweets and sweet adventures. If you want a story that's as fluffy and fun as a marshmallow cloud, How to Grow a Marshmallow Tree is your golden ticket to the sugar-coated wonderland!

This was a cute story! Fun and quirky and I can see the elementary school marshmallow projects just by reading. It would be a great addition to the classroom for both art class and even as a transition into learning about plants and their growth needs. I'd like to know the backstory on how a little girl and a polar bear became such close friends!

This was a really cute and lovely story!

I read the book with my 6 year old daughter at bedtime last night and she loved it.

She is a massive fan of marshmallows so that probably also helped!

We loved the characters and it was a fun read.

She read the book to me with no issues – some great family time

It is 5 stars from us – very highly recommended!

What a fun book to read with younger elementary students.
This book is about a girl on an imaginary journey with her pet polar bear.
They decide they love marshmallows, only have one left, and the way to get more is to plant a marshmallow tree. They go through the steps of how to make a tree grow and what a plant needs to survive and thrive.

This book would go great in a unit about the life cycle of a plant. While they discuss how a plant starts as a seed, they can discuss how a marshmallow is not a seed, and figure out how could you make a marshmallow. This could expand into learning what other foods are made of, the different ingredients in foods, and the difference between processed foods and natural foods. There are a lot of avenues to take with the imagination in this book. This book would be fun to explore in a small group setting or as a whole group as most younger students this is aimed towards would not be able to read this book independently.

Thank you NetGalley for an advanced e-reader copy of this book.

An adorable story about two friends working together to help grow a tree. The illustrations were beautifully done and the story showed teamwork and a friend processing their emotions and apologizing for getting frustrated. Also the fact at the end about marshmallows is something I didn’t know and really cool to learn
