It is suitable for ages 7–12 and aims to spark curiosity in plant and nature lovers, budding gardeners, and aspiring biologists.

Written by Soledad Romero Mariño and illustrated by Sonia Pulido, this edition was published by Phaidon France and released on 15 May 2025. The design and presentation are described as frame-worthy, enhancing its appeal as a gift or reference for young readers interested in the natural world.
