Fly Traps!:Plants That Bite Back

This is a terrific book for the carnivious plant people and their kids. The illustrations are fun. The information is surprizingly complete. I learned how I had killed one of our pitcher plants by putting it in fertilized soil mix...who knew...until now this was death by care. A great find and a pleasure for my 5 year old reader and me, together or on our own.
