A visual guide to flowers and their habitats

Botany basics provide a starting point for exploring the book’s wide range of blooms, from pitcher plants and giant water lilies to the corpse flower. The pages connect flower identification with the habitats plants live in, while also covering endangered species and features such as fragrance, vivid color, carnivory, and poison. Illustrated examples and concise informational text give the subject a picture-book format, with details spanning both familiar ideas about flowers and less expected plant traits.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 interested in flowers, plants, or nature
  • Young readers who enjoy illustrated nonfiction and bite-sized facts
