Makerspace Projects for Understanding Plant Science

Young makers can explore the world of botany with this fascinating introduction to plant science. Plants have a dynamic role in maintaining life on Earth. Even the smallest plants can make their own food, produce oxygen, and put down roots in an ever-changing world. Surprising facts, fascinating histories, and colorful photographs will help readers unfold the mysteries of plant science, and simple descriptions will give them the knowledge and confidence they need to create do-it-yourself projects. Readers can get their hands dirty making a bug hotel, a self-watering herb garden, and mini composting bin at home or at school.
