My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Alex, the inventor, is so creative and full of imagination. This story gives such a chuckle. One can imagine filling little plants with helium and going for a ride. Oh, I can remember asking Calgon to take me away. My grandson asked me if we could really take a flying ride with flowers. I could see his little mind churning. I love how this author’s stories help to stir the child’s creative thoughts with her stories. We love reading about Alex’s adventures and look forward to more. The pictures are colorful. The story is perfect for letting your imagination flow and it’s a 5-star book in our house.

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.
