The book that i am reading is about plants/fruit/dangerous plants/poisonous plants/birds and seeds and how plants are grown properly and what you will need to help them stay alive.

The reason why i like this book is because its interesting it has cool pictures and beautiful pictures of birds fruits plants and seeds and i think it explain perfectly and the reason i think this explains well is because it has pictures of things that i don't know it says in the book a growing ring and i thought that a growing ring is a a that grows bigger and bigger and it was actually a ring that is added to a tree trunk every year.

The ratings for this book is 10/10.
