Bugs, Pests, and Plants (Library Binding)

Gardens are one of nature's busiest ecosystems. Bugs, pests, and plants are the key figures in this unique habitat, and readers are invited to explore the relationships that allow it to grow, thrive, and stand strong against the critters that want to destroy it. This text offers a fresh take on essential science concepts covered in elementary classrooms, using the high-interest topic of gardening to encourage readers to get outside and see, firsthand, science at work in their own backyard. Informative yet engaging diagrams, colorful photographs, and fact boxes support this title's information-rich content.
