Photosynthesis

Very readable introduction to photosynthesis. Includes some great facts like a single maple tree can produce 2 tons of food (sugar) in one sunny day. Could use some illustrations (e.g. cell anatomy and xylem and phloem, but photos are good. Includes a glossary, additional resource list, and index.
