What Do the Plants Say?

What Do the Plants Say? is a book about a little girl who wants to understand the way the plants talk, so she uses a microphone and her mom’s recorder and figures out how the plants can talk. Mostly she hears a lot of “pop pop bop.” The illustrations are very lovely, and you can tell exactly what’s happening. The book’s title tells you what it’s about, but there are still some surprises. The writing quality is beautiful and the language is really descriptive. Anybody can enjoy reading these but those who will enjoy it the most are probably between five and ten years old. Children who like inventing things or are interested in gardening will be especially drawn to the book.
