This beginner's guide and classroom favorite explores the Arctic and Antarctic biomes, their beauty, and global diversity.
Author and former early education teacher Cathryn Sill uses simple, easy-to-understand language to teach children what the Polar Regions are-from the frozen deserts of Antarctica to the ice floes of the Arctic Ocean-along with what kinds of animals and plants live there, how they have adapted to life in this environment, and why they're important.
Noted wildlife illustrator John Sill offers full-color illustrations depicting the various landscapes and species of animals and plants. A glossary and afterword provide more details for further study.
Great for early childhood and elementary units on geography and habitats, nature and environment.
