Product Description

Product Description
Unlike animals that can run from danger or migrate to a more hospitable environment, plants must rely on adaptations that permit them to survive where they are. The mechanisms that plants employ to survive are explained and illustrated in this primer.

From the Publisher
An introduction to botany and ecology for young readers
This book, suitable for readers ages 10-15, combines the same gifts for lucid, simple explanations and striking illustrations that have made the author’s earlier book, Botany for Gardeners, one of our bestsellers. Plants, rooted to the earth, must rely on adaptations that permit them to live in a fixed location. The fascinating mechanisms that plants use to survive and thrive are explained clearly.
