From School Library Journal:

Gr 3-6--This ambitious book, originally written in French, includes descriptions of the composition and survival of plants, botany experiments, and gardening projects and advice. The busy, full-color format is full of boxes and sidebars, leaving readers with bits and pieces of not-necessarily related information and experiments that explain processes and results but not the reasons behind them. For a more scientific and thorough presentation of botany experiments, try Janice VanCleave's Plants (Wiley, 1997), which invites readers to wonder and to follow their curiosity.
