The rainforest is teeming with plants and trees that come in a variety of sizes. Some are giants with a stem longer than 150 metres. Others need a magnifying glass to be seen. There are carnivorous plants, plants that hitch rides on other plants, plants that strangle and plants that are deadly poisonous. But how do they all survive and how do they help animals and people survive? This book discovers their secrets. Special 'links' boxes show how plants from the rainforest are used around the world. 'Rainforest secrets' panels give you amazing facts and stories about the forest and 'Fascinating facts' boxes give you exactly that - fascinating facts.
