This Springboards into Science Series provides a very close look at some of the most interesting characteristics and lifestyles nature has to offer. In How & Why, Dwight Kuhn's remarkably detailed close-up photography puts young readers face-to-face with poisonous animals and insect-eating plants. Each volume's easy-to-understand text and full-color photographs are designed to fascinate, as well as educate.Visiting flowers is one of nature's ways for insects to feed themselves and for flowers to produce seeds. Find out how and why insects such as bees, beetles, butterflies, and ambush bugs visit flowers and help or hurt them.
