Designed for grades K-5.

Sassafras Science Adventures Volume 3: Botany studies pollination & seed dispersal, non-flowering plants (gymnosperms), flowering plants (angiosperms), parts of a flower, herbs & grasses, carnivorous plants, parasitic plants, fungi & molds, cacti, and biomes. Twins Blaine and Tracey focus on studying plants as they zip around the globe, visiting places like the Amazon Jungle to pick up facts about orchids and ferns; the pampas in Argentina to learn about grasses and wildflowers; and the French countryside to discover several different kinds of trees, learning from local experts at each stop!
