Bloom / Kenneth Oppel.
After the downpour, odd black plants begin to shoot up. They are taking over crop fields, twining up houses, and burrowing below streets. They bloom and throw off toxic pollens-- and they feed.

When the world is overtaken by monster alien plants that emit toxic pollens and swallow up people, three kids on a remote island look for clues in their unusual allergies to understand their immunity to the invaders. By the award-winning author of Inkling. Simultaneous eBook. - Random House, Inc.
"The perfect book right now for young readers searching for hope, strength, inspiration â and just a little horticultural havoc."âNew York Times
Â
The first book in a can't-put-it-down, can't-read-it-fast-enough action-thriller trilogy that's part Hatchet, part Alien!
The invasion begins--but not as you'd expect. It begins with rain. Rain that carries seeds. Seeds that sprout--overnight, everywhere. These new plants take over crop fields, twine up houses, and burrow below streets. They bloom--and release toxic pollens. They bloom--and form Venus flytrap-like pods that swallow animals and people. They bloom--everywhere, unstoppable.
Or are they? Three kids on a remote island seem immune to the toxic plants. Anaya, Petra, Seth. They each have strange allergies--and yet not to these plants. What's their secret? Can they somehow be the key to beating back this invasion? They'd better figure it out fast, because it's starting to rain again....
