Description
Discover the intriguing world of the leaf with this handy pocket guide. Beautifully illustrated throughout, The Little Guide to Leaves offers a fresh perspective on identifying the trees and plants around you. It features 40 of the most spectacular leaves from around the world, including the more common tree leaves we know and love, as well as exotic palms, ferns and houseplants. Each leaf has been delicately illustrated by printmaker Tom Frost to capture its individual characteristics, and is accompanied by information about the tree or plant to which it belongs and where it can be found, plus associated facts and fables. This informative, practical and beautiful guide is part of a new nature series designed to encourage creativity through exploring the outdoors.
