(4) 4-6 Classifying Living Things series. These books explain scientific classification, then define their subjects further. Flowering concentrates on nine of the numerous orders of monocots and dicots. Nonflowering includes information about the ten divisions of seedless and seed plants combined. Captioned color photos, sidebars, and diagrams illustrate the text; a few more of the last would be helpful, as the text is sometimes dense. Reading list. Glos., ind.
