Plant

I know about plants: they have stalks, leaves, and flowers that sometimes smell. What else do I know about plants? I eat lots of different kinds of plants, sometimes the leaves, other times the roots, but I like the fruit the best. I know I couldn’t live on the Earth without plants, but I don’t know why. Grass is a plant that cows and sheep eat. Most plants I know are mainly green, but flowers are all different colours, and shapes too. A tiny seed can grow into a huge plant, when it is buried underground.
The activities included in this book are: making bark and leaf rubbings, and learning to measure how tall a tree is.
