Weeds Find a Way

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Carolyn Fisher. The durability of weeds is here celebrated as an example of plant adaptation; they're survivors rather than invaders (an offbeat point of view for gardeners!). Cheery mixed-media and collage illustrations and imagery-rich, hand-lettered text capture the carefree, random quality of seed dispersal. Further information about some two dozen widespread varieties such as dandelion and thistle is appended.
