This enchanting book for children is more than just a celebration of flowers. Full of stunning, original photographs, this information-packed book is not only filled with images of flowers; it also takes a closer look at the life to be found in, on and around them. A section at the end of the book provides ideas for projects and a fun flower quiz. "Nature On Our Doorstep" books are designed for children of around eight to twelve years of age, but the photos, interesting facts and attention to detail make them attractive to all ages. Parents, grandparents and other adults will have as much fun learning about nature in all its wonder as the children. Each book in the series encourages readers to think about our environment and how we can all make a difference, even in as small an area as our own back yard.
