Plant Power
Produced in partnership with the RHS, this beautiful book explores fascinating plants from around the world, our connections to them and how they are vital for life on Earth.
Plants are amazing! They are found in every part of the world, growing from tiny seeds into beautiful blooms, gigantic trees and the delicious fruit and vegetables we eat. Plants are vitally important to humans, animals and even the climate, providing food, shelter, medicines and even helping to clean our planet's air and water.
This book tells you everything you need to know about plants, from how they grow, reproduce and make their own food to the variety of ways that humans and animals use plants every single day.
Readers can find out about plant parts and plant life cycles, pollination, food chains, photosynthesis, seeds and plant uses, such as in food, homes, furniture, musical instruments and medicines. We find out how plants can inspire us and how we need to protect plants so they can help protect us.
This book is perfect for children aged 7+.
