    Leaf Detective

    You are on a forest floor. It is dark. It is cool. It is shady. The


    big, high trees shade you. They keep the sun from burning
    you. They keep the forest cool. You look at the plants close to
    you. You look at the plants, low on the forest floor. Think
    about the leaves on the low plants. Think like a detective. Do
    you think the leaves will be big or little? Plants need sun.
    They need sunlight to grow. They need sunlight to make food.
    Plants on the forest floor have big leaves. The leaves are very
    large. The big leaves let the plant make the best use of any
    light that reaches them.
    The big, high trees block
    the sunlight. They make the forest dark and shady. Still,
    the plants on the forest floor can live. They can get
    enough sunlight with their big, large leaves. One plant
    lives in the water. The plant is a water lily. It lives in
    jungles. Each water lily has 40 to 50 leaves. The leaves
    float on top of the water. They are very large. Each leaf
    is about six feet (1.8 meters) across! The leaves are
    strong. A child can walk across them! Think about the
    jungle water lily leaves. Think like a detective. How
    does a water lily keep fish from eating its leaves? Some
    leaves feel smooth. Leaves of the giant water lily are not smooth. The bottoms of the leaves
    are covered. They are covered in spines. The spines are sharp. The sharp spines keep fish
    from eating the leaves. Some trees have leaves that taste bad. Think like a detective. Why
    do some plants have bad-tasting leaves? If a leaf tastes bad, they will not be eaten. Insects
    and animals do not like bad-tasting leaves.
