The Reason for a Flower — Ruth Heller

The reason for a flower is to manufacture seeds, but Ruth Heller shares a lot more about parts of plants and their functions in her trademark rhythmic style. "[An] extravagantly beautiful creation. It is unusual in its ingenious way of teaching botany and interesting words to the littlest of readers". -- "Publishers Weekly" "Ms. Heller's colors and drawings are as electrifying as ever". -- "Los Angeles Times"
