The information in this book had a close connection with what I learned in Biology class. If I had not had Biological knowledge, I would not have understood the content. I learned that we can use what we learned in other subject to understand a book written in English. Note for me mosses=a kind of plant that do not have a system to keep or move the liquid in their body(vascular system) spore=a spore is very small, and it floats in the air. Mosses and ferns both reproduce by spores.

昔、生物で習った植物の分類（コケ植物、シダ植物、裸子植物、被子植物）を英語で復習する感覚で楽しかった。単語がわからなくても説明を読んで「ああ、維管束のことね」と納得したり。説明は丁寧でわかりやすいです。植物周辺のvocabulary buildingにも役立ちそう。

植物の分類法について学べる。Carl Linneus、Gregor Mendelなども登場し、生物好きにはお勧め。 《学んだこと》 Scientific names are written in a language known as Latin. The nams can tell us how different plants are similar to other plants.

I knew that about two thousand new plants are classified each year. I want to discover a new plant and name it.
