Does anyone remember this book? I'm sure it was a recommendation from this group years ago. There's a king who gives all his subjects seeds to plant. Only this little boy is honest about his one seed in his small pot and he is rewarded for his honesty.

Great book!

Hope I can find it again.

Are you looking for "The Empty Pot" by Demi?

Not sure but that sounds like the right one.

Yes, it sounds like The Empty Pot is probably the one you're looking for. Also, Anno has one that is similar but is more math-oriented called Anno's Magic Seeds -- for some reason I always link these two books and invariably use both together ....

That's it! I knew I came to the right place. Thank you both for your help.

I plan on giving this book as Christmas presents to my neices and nephews.

Thanks again.
