A secret underwater world brought to life: This gorgeous companion
to the acclaimed Over and Under the Snow and Up in the Garden and
Down in the Dirt is an excellent addition to any emerging reader's
collection.
In Over and Under the Pond, readers will discover the plants and
animals that make up the rich, interconnected ecosystem of a mountain
pond. Over the pond, the water is a mirror, reflecting the sky. But
under the water is a hidden world of creatures--minnows darting, beavers
diving, and tadpoles growing.
These secrets and many others are waiting to be discovered over and
under the pond in this sweet children's book from Kate Messner and
Christopher Silas Neal, the latest in their beloved series that offers
kids a peek into hidden ecosystems.
ENTERTAINING AND EDUCATIONAL: Stunning illustrations paired with an
easy-to-follow storyline make this a great read for any early elementary
school student, while a glossary of animals that live in, near, and
around the mountain pond enriches the reading experience.
INSPIRES A LOVE A NATURE: Offering a look inside a beautiful underwater
ecosystem, this gorgeously illustrated book encourages children to
explore the world around them and appreciate the natural wonders they
discover.
