Warning -- this book contains top-secret information about flowers! Prepare

to be shocked and weirded out by this hilarious and totally true picture book introduction to some of nature's strangest plants.

Flowers are beautiful. They have bright colors, soft petals and sweet nectar. Yum! But that's not the whole truth. Flowers can be WEIRD . . . and one bee is here to let everyone know! Talking directly to the reader, a bee reveals how flowers are so much stranger than what we think. Did you know that there are some flowers that only bloom in the nighttime? Some flowers are spooky, and look like ghosts, or bats, or a monster's mouth. And while most flowers smell good, there are some that smell like dead meat, or even horse poop!

This hilarious and refreshing book with silly and sweet illustrations explores the science of flowers and shows that these plants are not always stereotypically pretty and harmless as we often think they are -- they are fascinating, disgusting, complicated and amazing.

警告——这本书包含了关于花的机密信息！准备好被这本搞笑真实的图画书所介绍的大自然中一些稀奇古怪的植物所震惊。

花是美丽的。它们颜色鲜艳，花瓣柔软，花蜜香甜。很好闻！但这并不是事实的全部。花也可以是怪异的……一只蜜蜂在这里告诉大家！它与读者直接对话，揭示了花是如何比我们想象的要奇怪得多。你知道有一些花只在夜间开花吗？有些花很诡异，看起来像鬼魂，或蝙蝠，或怪物的嘴。虽然大多数花闻起来很香，但也有一些花闻起来像死肉，甚至像马粪！

这本有趣又令人耳目一新的书，配以憨厚可爱的插图，探讨了花卉的科学性，并表明这些植物并不像我们经常认为的那样总是刻板地漂亮和无害，它们有迷人的，也有令人反感的，有复杂的，也有惊人的。
