Sun and Plants

Without the sun, we wouldn't have bountiful harvests, beautiful flowers, or green forests. The relationship between the sun and plants is complex, fascinating, and altogether necessary for life on Earth. Through colorful photographs, easy-to-follow diagrams, fun facts, and standards-based activities, this book gives readers an inside look at photosynthesis, sun plants versus shade plants, seasons, and so much more. The narrative takes young learners on a journey through a day in the life of a plant and helps readers predict how clouds, the sun, and seasonal weather will affect the trees, flowers, crops, and lawns that they encounter in their own lives.
