What Do the Plants Say? (Alex, the Inventor) by Lois Wickstrom – Review by Jenni Bishop

What Do the Plants Say? by Lois Wickstrom
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

What Do the Plants Say? Is a picture book that is full of imagination and creativity, talking plants and what’s more our main character can understand them. This is fun story is aimed at young readers aged 8 – 12 years. The illustrations by Janet King are colourful and make the story come alive.
Lois once again cleverly inserts science into the children’s books she writes. It allows them to open up their young minds and imagine what it could be like.
Alex is one smart cookie and believes that plants can talk. She is able to think outside the square and invent something she believes will help her understand them.
Join Alex and her clever mind as she makes some fun and interesting inventions to indulge nature. This is another wonderful story that would make a good present.
