Description
This is our Green Planet- a hidden world where plants can smell, taste, touch, hear and even . . . 'talk'. Discover the astonishing stories from the brand-new BBC TV series, presented by David Attenborough. This is our Green Planet- a hidden world where plants care for other plants and can smell, taste, touch, hear and even . . . 'talk'. In the world of plants, time passes more slowly, but if we speed months into minutes we can peer into this hidden world and realise- it's a battleground. Plants are working to thwart their enemies, and to trick animals into working for them. Right under your feet, and all around you, is a secret world you've probably never noticed. Until now. Let's explore our Green Planet- a secret world of plants that might change how you see plants forever . . . Discover all there is to love about our astonishing Green Planet, the stories of its inhabitants, and the challenges it faces. In collaboration with BBC Earth, this illustrated non-fiction book captures the intrigue, drama, and beauty of the groundbreaking new BBC TV series- The Green Planet, narrated by Sir David Attenborough.
