5.0 out of 5 stars Suitable for young and mature readers alike., April 15, 2004
By A Customer
One of the key survival strategies for animals faced with difficult climates and conditions is migration; immediate threats from other animals can be escaped by running, flying, or swimming. Plants, rooted to the earth, must rely on adaptations that permit them to survive where they are. The fascinating mechanisms that plants use to stay alive in deserts, forests, alpine tundra, jungles, and in water are explained clearly with the aid of beautiful color drawings.

Readers will not only come to understand something of the hidden life of both familiar and exotic plants, but will learn how plants interact with their environments in the complex fabric of life on earth. Correct scientific terminology is introduced and explained, making this an excellent entry for youngsters into the fascinating worlds of botany and ecology.
