Plants don't eat food. Instead, they use sunlight to get energy that they can use. Photosynthesis looks at how plants take in water and air and turn them into sugars the plants can use.

Traces the science of photosysthesis and its relevance in both history and the modern world, exploring the phenomenon's key role in confronting today's environmental challenges.

"Introduces the process of photosynthesis. Readers will gain insight into how photosynthesis works and its effects"-- www.childsworld.com.

"The next two books in the Baby Loves series tackle the first law of thermodynamics (energy cannot be created or destroyed, but it can change forms) and Schrödinger's Cat, the famous thought experiment involving quantum theory (quantum physics states that a particle can exist in multiple places at once). Accurate enough to satisfy an expert and simple enough for the rest of us to comprehend, the Baby Loves board books are perfect for geeky moms and...

"In its pure form carbon can the soft graphite in a pencil or an immensely hard diamond. It is the basic building block of most of the cells in our bodies. Carbon attracts, and one of the most crucial relationships it forms is with oxygen, producing carbon dioxide, the gas vital to life on earth. This is the story of a chemical element, C, its myriad properties and its life cycle. It is the story of a balance between photosynthesis and cell respiration,...

"Diane Miessler presents the science of soil health and shares the techniques she has used - including cover crops, constant mulching, and compost tea - to create and maintain rich, dark, crumbly soil that's teeming with life "--

What do a tree's roots and flowers do? Which trees keep their leaves in the winter? What is photosynthesis? How do trees protect themselves? Can trees communicate with each other?
