Great book with a wealth of information
Bought this for my niece as a gift. She loves plants and flowers and this book has a wealth of information and facts about the subject. I found myself reading through it because it was so interesting. She is going to be 9 years old soon and this book is for all ages (from kids to adults). Each page is filled with colorful pictures and information on specific plants, flowers, and trees that grow and thrive in different environments. She will love it!

Wonderful
Exactly what I wished for. My 5 yr is an avid plant lover, this book is perfect for him, it shows plants and their details and characteristics in new ways. He has been so excited everytime he opens it. He is busy comparing what he sees in the book to the plants we have around our house. And because of the book he has already collected specific leaves from outside to look at under his microscope. Any child who loves nature and plants will certainly get something out of this book, the information is rich for older kids and the pictures vibrant for the younger.

Great supplementary book for biology studies!
The book is stunning! Very beautiful! This is not the most engaging book for kids, even though it is stunning and highly educational. But as a supplement to biology studies it works great!

Great!
Great book for learning about plant types and how they grow. Hardcover felt very sturdy.

Not particularly engaging for my kids.
Bought this book to spark my boys interest in plants. The printing and illustrations are indeed beautiful, and it’s packed with fascinating facts. However, it didn’t really capture my child’s attention as I had hoped. After a few looks, it hasn’t been picked up again. A visually impressive book, but not particularly engaging for my boys.

Really awesome book!!
My 4 year old loves plants and he spends ages going through the pages looking at the pictures and asking questions. I learned a few things from this book too. Highly recommended.
User
Great photos
This book is full of photos and really great for young and old. Probably aimed for older children I found this a boon studying for horticulture with well depicted explanations at a level I could absorb and understand.
User
Helpful reference in teaching botany
This is a well structured book about trees, leaves, flowers, and seeds. Photos are stunning and my homeschooled children easily choose a topic they want to dive deeper just by picking one of the eye catching pictures. Highly recommend it for botany studies.

Another great encyclopedia from DK & Smithsonian
Over years we have bought a lot of these visual encyclopedias from the DK-Smithsonian and/or DK line ups. Every single one of them was great. This one is not exception.A lot of great photos, helpful depictions, info, helps kids engaged through a book, rather than via a screen.
