Synopsis

This beginner's guide and classroom favorite from the creators of the About Habitats series explores the major attributes of forests.

The author, an educator by training, uses simple, easy-to-understand language to teach children what forests are and how various species of animals and plants have adapted to life in these habitats.

Noted wildlife illustrator John Sill offers detailed, full-color illustrations to show the characteristics of different types of forests—from the cold boreal forests of the northern hemisphere to the warm tropical forests near the equator—as well as the animals and plants that live there. A glossary and afterword provide further details.
