Review :
Selected for the CBC’s 2022 July Hot Off The Press Reading List "Each text is filled with colorful, detailed illustrations that are filled with labels, and captions. The text is sparse, however it does the job and goes a long way toward explaining the key features or importance of each creature or the flora and fauna on each two page spread. Young botanists and ornithologists will enjoy exploring the pages and learning how to classify and identify a variety of common and unique plants and birds." ―Youth Services Book Review "Author Nemcova and illustrator Pernicky team up to deliver a fascinating and educational compendium of flowering and non-flowering plants, fungi, and lichens. The oversized format is striking and engaging, and the inclusion of pages covering parasitic and carnivorous plants, as well as those on poisonous and inedible plants and fungi make this encyclopedia a standout from others in the genre. This volume is best suited as an overview of the subject matter and a jumping off point in beginning research skills." ―Children's Literature Review "The beautiful illustrations are very eye-catching and helpful with identification without being too detailed where it may lose the child's attention. The information is on-point and delivered in a fun way that encourages the young reader to dive into different types of plants (from conifers and cacti to carnivorous and creeping plants), fungi (edible, inedible, and poisonous), and lichens." ―Britney W., NetGalley-Reviewer "A fantastic resource for all sorts of plants, fungi, and lichens. that will help you identify trees, mushrooms, moss, and more in the wild! Perfect for young readers, this encyclopedia shares a short paragraph of information for each listed. Not too much, nor too little!" ―Stacy Renee C., NetGalley-Reviewer "What a wonderful book for young plant lovers! The Encyclopedia of Plants, Fungi, and Lichens is a brightly illustration collection of tidbits about some well-loved plants, as well as some I've never heard of! Organized brilliantly by type of plant, fungi, and lichens, each section gives a short overview of the group with examples. A great buy for any young plant or nature enthusiast." ―Colleen L., Librarian "Great resource for all sorts of plants. Loved the illustrations and descriptions." ―Sydne C., Bookseller
