Trees and Plants
Edward Parker
Paperback
(Hodder Childrens Book, Oct. 31, 2002)
The rainforest is teeming with plants and trees that come in a variety of sizes. Some are giants with a stem longer than 150 metres. Others need a magnifying glass to be seen. There are carnivorous plants, plants that hitch rides on other plants, plants that strangle and plants that are deadly poisonous. But how do they all survive and how do they help animals and people survive? Beautifully designed, and illustrated with stunning new photographs, the book's features include special 'links' boxes to link trees and plants with humans and 'rainforest secrets', which reveal amazing facts and stories.
