Selected as one of the Best Children's Books of the Year 2023 by the Bank Street College of Education Center for Children's Literature"Narrated by an enthusiastic, quirky gardener, read about weird plants that stink, look peculiar, eat meat, mimic other things, and many more such oddities. The illustrations are accompanied by a lively description that gives pertinent facts while engaging readers with the gardener’s strong voice." —Imagination Soup Blog"Other than that one flower, it was wonderfully interesting to learn about all the weird plants in the world! There are some really amazing plants in this book, and many times I thought to myself, “Oh my goodness! THAT can’t be real. That has to be fake.” Some of them look like they belong on an alien landscape! But no, they are all REAL plants on our own dear planet Earth. Fascinating!" —Luminous Libro"Amazing Plants of the World by Stepanka Sekaninova is a beautiful and interesting introduction to rare plants. I love gardening and this book offered me the opportunity to get my child interested in plants, too. The artwork is so bold and colorful, which really helped keep my little one (and me!) engaged. It was an interesting and informative book that we could both learn from, and it was just as enjoyable for adults as for the kids. Would definitely recommend it to other parents!" —Amanda A., NetGalley-Reviewer"This book has pretty illustrations. I would recommend this book for young patrons who are interested in plants and gardening. The sections like carnivorous plants and smelly plants will be amusing to kids learning about these things for the first time. This would also be a nice addition to a school library." —Amanda B., Librarian"Amazing Plants of the World is a fun and creatively illustrated book about some particularly plants. I think this book will catch and hold the attention of readers. The text is informative, but also a great deal of fun. I think the use of humor, high energy, and just plan fun text and illustrations work together very well to capture and hold the attention of young readers. There was a great deal of interesting information, and the quality of the artwork was absolutely wonderful. I think event he youngest readers will enjoy looking through this book for the artwork alone." —SSTWriting Blog
