Unleash your inner botanist and become an eyewitness to the dizzyingly diverse world of plants.

The iconic eyewitness is back in a new and improved format to be passed down through the generations.

This picture-led reference guide will take you on a visual tour of everything green and growing. Children will go on a journey through a plant’s lifecycle; see a seed sprout, a fruit grow, and a Venus flytrap ensnare its prey.

Throughout the pages of this newly revised book on plants, you can expect to find:
  • A fresh new look; new photographs, updated information, and “eyewitness” accounts from experts in the field.
  • A visual tour through the topic combined with bite-sized text.
  • A collectable poster revealing facts and photographs from the book.

Eyewitness Plant introduces children to the many different species, like poisonous plants and parasites to elaborate flowers seeking to attract pollinators. Discover the secrets of plants’ survival, their importance to our ecosystem, and how they adapt to life in a range of habitats. This all-encompassing guide to plants is packed with facts, diagrams, and statistics and is a must-have for curious children aged 9+ with a thirst for learning.

So, what’s new?

Part of DK’s best-selling Eyewitness series, this popular title has been reinvigorated for the next generation of information-seekers and stay-at-home explorers, with a fresh new look, up to 20 percent new images, including photography and updated diagrams, updated information, and a new “eyewitness” feature with fascinating first-hand accounts from experts in the field.

Explore the series!

Globally, the Eyewitness series has sold more than 50 million copies over 30 years. Journey down the River Amazon and explore the rainforest with Eyewitness Amazon, learn how to combat climate change with Eyewitness Climate Change, or take a trip aboard the most famous ship in history with Eyewitness Titanic.
We believe in the power of discovery. That's why we create books for everyone that explore ideas and nurture curiosity about the world we live in.
