Sunflowers are bright, happy flowers.
They grow in sunny fields.
A sunflower starts as a small seed.
With water, sunlight and soil, it grows taller day by day.
Young sunflowers turn their heads to follow the sun from east to west every day.
When they are fully grown, they usually face east.
The big yellow part we see is not one single flower.
It is made of hundreds of tiny little flowers.
In the center, there are seeds.
Sunflower seeds are useful.
We can roast and eat them.
Farmers also make oil from sunflower seeds.
Bees love sunflowers.
They come to collect sweet nectar.
Sunflowers bring sunshine and food to our world.
