The perfect introduction to plants.From crowded cities to open prairies, deserts to wetlands, plants grow everywhere! This comprehensive introduction will open children's eyes to the plants that surround them and their importance to all of our lives. First it explores plant parts, life cycles and growing zones. Then it brings children up close to nature by taking them on a season-by-season tour of what plants are doing throughout the year. And for hands-on experience, there's an interactive Q&A guide to help plant sleuths identify what they've spotted. Sure to inspire budding naturalists to stop and observe the wonders growing all around them!
