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.

This book is perfect for children aged 7+.
