Plants can't run, but some of them can hide, thanks to camouflage-an important plant defense. Readers learn why some plants must hide in order to survive, which fits into a larger discussion of plant life cycles and behavior. This curriculum-driven text uses a high-interest lens to explain important science concepts, such as the role plants play in their ecosystem as well as how to identify them in nature. By the end of this title, young botanists will be encouraged to get out in nature and find plants that are hiding!
