Plant Leaves

24 pp. | Gareth | September, 1999 | Library ISBN 0-8368-2428-8 $$19.93
(4) K-3 Look Once, Look Again series. Photographs by Dwight Kuhn. A close-up of a plant part and a brief, written clue are followed on the next page by a photograph revealing the entire part (an apple, a flower), the plant's name, and a few simple facts. The inclusive definitions of blossom, leaf, and fruit are not spelled out (i.e, a pine cone is given as an example of fruit) and will probably be confusing, but the color photos are crisp and eye-catching. Simple activities are appended. Bib., glos., ind.
