Summary

Packed with more than 1,000 incredible images and full of fascinating facts, this beautiful children's book takes you on an exciting expedition through the wonders of the plant kingdom。

Explore the incredible world of plants, from the smallest seeds to the tallest trees。 Find out about the weirdest, smelliest, and deadliest flowers。 Which plants eat insects? How do cacti store water? What flower looks like a bee? Where is the tallest tree in the world? Trees, Leaves, Flowers & Seeds explores the mysterious world of plants to find the answers to these and many more questions。

Each type of plant - such as a flowering plant, a tree, a grass, or cactus - is examined close-up, with examples shown from all angles and in cross-section。 Picture-filled galleries also show the wonderful variety of plants on different themes, from the habitats they grow in to the plants that supply us with our staple foods。 But Trees, Leaves, Flowers & Seeds also takes a fun, more sideways look at some truly strange plants, such as trees with fruits like a giant's fingers, orchids that look like monkey faces, seeds that spin like helicopters, and trees that drip poison。

So open this amazing book and find out more about the world of trees, leaves, flowers, and seeds。

A great book for the budding (haha, I crack myself up) plant enthusiasts。 I plan on using this to help with some youth nature programming。

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it, click here。 Extremely informative about plants around the world。 Great photography。 All kinds of plants from trees to food plants。 Taxonomy in the beginning。 Tells about prehistory and how we know what we know。 Good for research。

A beautiful book with great pictures, snippets of information, and easy to understand scientific processes。 Perfect for a classroom or coffee table。

A great early guide to plants for school age kids, but I enjoyed it too!

I had a book just liked this as a kid except it was about animals。 this one one is all about plants and it might be even better。 amazing pictures and variety of all types of creatures from the plant kingdom。 Crazy orchids, parasitic plants, meat eating plants, flowers that mimic decaying flesh, fruits I've never heard of。 a lot of fun to go through and perfect for kids。 I had a book just liked this as a kid except it was about animals。 this one one is all about plants and it might be even better。 amazing pictures and variety of all types of creatures from the plant kingdom。 Crazy orchids, parasitic plants, meat eating plants, flowers that mimic decaying flesh, fruits I've never heard of。 a lot of fun to go through and perfect for kids。 。。。more

Every word, people。 I never thought I’d be the type to read every word of a book like this。 Then I became a mom。
