Rainforest Explorer (Habitat Explorer) - Softcover

The Earth's rain forests hold an abundance of life. This title sets out to uncover what types of plants and animals call this environment home as well as current threats to it. Readers discover diverse plants and animals, including their relationships to one another and the environment, driving home the key curriculum concept of interdependency. Maps, cross-sections, and edifying photographs complete the picture, while inventive side-panel graphics reinforce key information, such as habitat location (e.g., ground level or upper canopy).

Designed specially for young independent readers, aged between 6 and 8, this new wide-ranging collection called "Perspectives" aims to provide new perspectives on the topics being studied. The series combines core non-fiction features (including a real emphasis on research skills) with a visually stunning design that encourages readers to look at these topics in a different way. A journey of discovery through a wide range of different habitats is in store for the readers of this series. Each book looks at how animals and plants adapt to their environment and the diverse life forms that exist in each territory. Habitats are brought to life as pupils move through the region as if on a journey and find out the facts through sight, sense and smell.
