Description/Notes |
Briefly describes some of the different ways various kinds of seeds are carried from place to place to find good places to grow. 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.Traveling from place to place is one of nature's ways for seeds to find good places to sprout and grow. Find out how and why the seeds of plants such as dandelions, jewelweeds, oaks, and maples get to their happy sprouting grounds. |
