Spiny and Prickly Plants

Junior Library Guild Selection Plants might look harmless, but they can be killers. Some plants have huge thorns filled with stinging insects. Others can poke a person's skin with tiny poison daggers. This narrative nonfiction series features some of the most interesting—and dangerous—plants on the planet. Each book in this series includes a table of contents, glossary of key words, index, author biography, sidebars, and a feature on animal and plant mutualism.
