Olson Nature Writing Notable book   * "A terrific, engrossing resource." -Booklist, STARRED review   "This eye-opening book on the science and politics of agriculture serves as a wake-up call to readers about the fragility of something many of us take for granted: our plant-based food supply. Castaldo clearly lays out a case for the importance of plant diversity ("Seeds equal life"), presenting engaging scientific and historical information..." -Horn Book Magazine   "An impassioned call to action..." -School Library Journal   "Castaldo delivers a sobering global status report-and a call to action...Well-crafted and inspiring." -Kirkus   "Castaldo breaks down threats like climate change and disease, while providing a greater sense of interconnectivity in nature and within world communities." -Publishers Weekly -
