How do plants help us? We need them for food, clothes, medicine, even the air we breathe. Botanists are scientists who ask lots of questions about plants, and then try to find out the answers. This straightforward book introduces early readers to a real-life botanist, describing what kind of work he does and how he learns about plants. Eye-catching photographs complement the simple text. After learning about the job of a botanist, a fun project idea is provided to encourage readers to explore the world of plants for themselves. This early reader book supports scientific inquiry and the National Science Education Standard: Science as a Human Endeavor.
