About This Book

“[An] extravagantly beautiful creation. It is unusual in its ingenious way of teaching botany and interesting words to the littlest of readers.” — Publishers Weekly “Ms. Heller’s colors and drawings are as electrifying as ever.” — Los Angeles Times The reason for a flower is to manufacture seeds, but Ruth Heller shares a lot more about parts of plants and their functions in her trademark rhythmic style.
