Then we made the second book, and titled it Seed Sorting on its front page. The page with completed answers is pasted into the first page of the book. This goes on page two, Seed Sorting.

She gave us each a page with similar boxes on them, numbered 1 - 20, and a second page bearing not only the numbers, but their correct spelling.
