Say goodbye to boring biology with this fast-fact-packed tour of the world of plants. It’s the perfect way for children aged 9 plus to brush up on their S.T.E.M. stats and cement what they have learned in class with this fun book.

Plants explores the oddest, weirdest and most interesting facts about and features of plants in bite-sized chunks of text, so readers won’t be overwhelmed with information. Funny illustrations and photos are designed to hold their interest, and help them engage with S.T.E.M. topics.

Plants takes a look at plant parts – such as leaves and flowers – and their functions. It looks at the ingenious ways plants pollinate, grow and defend themselves, and how some even eat animals to survive. There is also a fun activity all about revealing the colours of leaves for budding STEMsters to try out, too.

The Stupendous and Tremendous Science series is ideal for all children aged 9+ who are studying S.T.E.M. topics at school or who simply have a fascination with science. It covers all the core topics in a fun and accessible way.
