{"product_id":"first-studies-in-plant-life-william-gillies-9781761832482","title":"First studies in plant life in Australasia","description":"\u003cp\u003eFirst published for young Australians, this friendly guide begins with \"A Walk Round My Garden,\" then turns to seeds, roots, stems, leaves, and the wondrous variety of flowers. Later chapters explain fruits and seeds, how plants multiply without seeds, how people improve plants, and how one season prepares for the next-always with questions, experiments, and outdoor work that keep curiosity alive. The preface sets a refreshing aim: don't stop at facts; show the reasons that make facts meaningful, and invite learners to ask better questions. The result is a book that respects children's minds and meets them where they live.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReaders come away with more than plant lore: they practise attention, build clear language for what they notice, and grow in patience and gratitude-habits that steady judgment and deepen delight outdoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William Gillies\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1761832484\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781761832482\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Living Book Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 198\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.52lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.45d","brand":"William Gillies","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48520217952511,"sku":"9781761832482","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_54fb9e15-43a4-47ed-90bf-5b7beff25bfd.jpg?v=1778741440","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/first-studies-in-plant-life-william-gillies-9781761832482","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
