Introduce young readers to the variety, wonder, and beauty of the hidden realm of plants that fuel our world with this picture book companion to the BBC Earth series The Green Planet narrated by Sir David Attenborough.

Right under your feet, and all around you, plants are creating life, battling their enemies, and persuading animals to work for them. Journey to tropical rainforests, deserts, underwater, and into the woods. Meet a poo-eating pitcher plant, join a water lily for a beetle party, peer into the tempting Venus flytrap, and explore a dazzling rainbow river in this fascinating nonfiction picture book.Author Biography
