Named after the Roman goddess of love, the Venus flytrap shows very little love to its victims. It’s one of Earth’s 645 carnivorous plants. Its leaves look like jaws, and their too thlike spikes trap hapless insects inside. Elementary-level readers will learn all about this rare and unusual plant, from its habitat and life cycle to its unique name and features. Short sidebars provide extra information, an on-page glossary defines key terms, and a “Nature Story” details the plant’s connection to people. Includes websites, a “Read More” section, and index.
