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.
