Have you ever noticed a yellow dandelion growing from a crack in the sidewalk? It may be hard to believe, but this little wild plant has a very important role to play in its habitat.
As readers spend 24 hours with a dandelion, they will discover:
how dandelion nectar is an essential food for bumblebees in early spring.
how a dandelion's juicy leaves, stems, and flowers are food for many different munching critters.

The carefully leveled text and beautiful images are a great way to get young readers enthused about nonfiction books and will get little nature fans seeing the humble dandelion in a whole new light.
