The Plant Hunters: True Stories of Their Daring Adventures to the Far Corners of the Earth by Anita Silvey

3.0

I read this aloud to my 8 year old. While it held his attention, I had to whip out all of my acting skills. I felt like for all the zinging statements, it was a little redundant. I kind of want to go back through and take notes to figure out exactly how much actual content is in this book. That said, the idea of it is interesting, I learned a bit about something I'd never previously given thought, and the photos and drawings were exceptional.
