Description
Young scientists will love this nature mystery that reveals the secrets hiding in seeds, plants, flowers, and fruits throughout the life cycle of various flora. Curiosity will bloom in this introduction to botany and primary nature science.
Plants come in all shapes and sizes, but they go through the same stages as they grow. Using four common plants, young readers learn about plant structure and life cycle. Simple text and colorful, detailed illustrations show the major phases of plant growth with each stage holding a "secret" for curious readers to guess. Back matter offers more information on each plant, as well as greater detail on each stage of growth.
