We are totally reliant on plants for food and energy and this beautiful book provides a completely fascinating insight into their wide and varied world. It tells you how plants evolved, how different types grow, spread and survive as well as much, much more. * minitravellers.co.uk *
Twenty-five spreads in this striking volume, the size of a small tray and illustrated with elegant graphics, address aspects of plants including structure, reproduction, categorisation and importance. A beautifully produced and informative introduction to botany. * The Sunday Times, Watch Out For *
