What Can a Flower Be?

By Kier Holmes

A flower can be many things--a decoration for the homes of bower birds, a heating pad for beetles, and tasty treats for sloths (hibiscus flowers are called sloth chocolate ).

In this lushly illustrated picture book, children will learn about different flowers and the insects, animals, and humans that rely on them. What Can a Flower Be? is a fun, playful approach with verse accompanied by science facts about numerous insects, plants, and animals. It shows how flowers work as part of a larger ecosystem and teaches kids many different functions for flowers, from food and shelter to heating and healing.

For children, teachers, parents, grandparents, and caregivers who want to share plants, trees, animals, insects, and flowers in an approachable way.
