(3) K-3 Illustrated by Mia Posada. Gorgeous cut-paper collages with watercolor illustrate this poetic celebration of plant tropisms. A spare, repetitive text explains how and why plants move--"searching for the things that all plants need: water, sunshine, and room to grow." The "More About Plants" appendix offers facts about each plant depicted; an author's note mentions Hirsch's sources and inspiration. Reading list, websites. Glos.
