From New York Times bestselling author Andy Warner comes a highly entertaining, informative graphic novel that traces our ever-evolving relationship with plants through time.

Did you know that plants helped shape our modern world?

It may sound ridiculous, but empires have risen and fallen because of stuff you'd find in your grocery store's vegetable aisle. Through wars, famine, prosperity, and more, every aspect of our lives and livelihoods has something to do with plants!

Whether or not you notice them, plants are as central to our day-to-day lives as a bowl of rice or a plate of pasta, and they have shaped our history the same way a gardener trims a topiary.

Did you know that a pepper blockade led to the Age of Exploration? How about that huge wheat barges once kept Rome running with free bread? Or that whole wars were fought over tea? Get ready to follow corn's weird journey from the floating fields of the Aztec emperors to the glossy shine on this book's cover.

Andy Warner sifts through the roots and leaves of our long, complicated history with the earth's original green resources in this hilarious, fact-filled follow-up to Andy Warner's Oddball Histories: Pests and Pets.

So cute! Not sure if it will hold up though
Size: Queen, Color: Baby Pink, Size: Queen, Color: Baby Pink
This comforter set is so cute! I love how vibrant the pink is. It is also super duper soft. The quality is okay though. There's a lot of random threads coming out, so I honestly don't know how long it will hold up after multiple washes. There's no weight to it either. It's just soft and fluffy which I love. The size is true to size too. It's a real queen size. I love the fact that the fancy pillowcase has pockets. I absolutely adore this style because it keeps your pillow inside at all times. The regular pillowcase is just the normal. No pockets or anything like that. You can see how vibrant this comforter set by comparing it to my weighted blanket that I have underneath it. It's a super vibrant pastel pink, and I love it! I've also been sleeping like a baby ever since I used this set. The comforter set is really so fluffy and soft that it feels like a marshmallow. Since I also pair it with my weighted blanket, it's seriously a dream come true. Overall, I'd recommend this. I just don't know how long it will last after multiple washes.

Nice bedding set for price
Size: Queen, Color: Olive Green
I bought a set of these for my bedroom and guest room. They are true to color, relatively soft, fit perfect, and the comforter is pretty fluffy. The sheets didn't wrinkle and they are easy to wash and dry without doing anything special. My dog stained my guest room set and I absolutely will be ordering another one

Great set for the price!
Size: Queen, Color: Beige
I’ve had the set for several months now and I really like this set. I was nervous about the comforter being thin and cheap, however, after washing and drying it is a really good comforter for the price. The sheets and pillow cases are also very smooth, no pilling or ripping, stitches are still intact, so I think it is set is great.

Pretty comforter set
Size: King, Color: Beige
I like how soft and comfortable this comforter set feels. It’s lightweight, so it works well for summer or if you don’t want something heavy. The color looks clean and matches my room nicely. Everything fit the bed the way it should, and the fabric feels smooth. It’s a nice set for everyday use.
