Crazy Plants (a True Book

From floating flowers and flying seeds to sweet scents and deadly poison, explore the surprising world of the planet's wackiest plants.

A True Book: Incredible Plants series introduces young investigative readers to many types of unusual and typical plants from photosynthesis, how they grow, and ways they survive in extreme environments. This series includes an age appropriate (grades 3-5) introduction to curriculum-relevant subjects and a robust resource section that encourages independent study. All plants need the same basic ingredients to live and reproduce, including air, water, and nutrients. While this may seem pretty straightforward, some plants have developed seriously wild ways to survive and thrive.
