Good generic overview of the rainforest,
By Ark Lady (Diana L Guerrero) "ArkLady" (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Journey into the Rainforest (Hardcover)
This is a beautifully done book. Readers are incorporated into a journey into the rainforest where they learn about preparations for the trip, human activities and life in the area, rainfall, life in the different areas of the rainforest, terms, adaptations of plants and animals and more. This book is a good introduction for younger readers and is a refreshing change from some of the other works that outline specific areas of the rainforest (like the layers) and rant and rave about loss of biodiversity. Although the book touches on the important points it provides a good introductory overview and introduces words, concepts, plants and animals for further research. The ending leaves room for futher adventures in a sequel -- or for the teacher to explore with the class. I found this book when looking for texts for a more advanced workshop that I teach. I would recommend it as part of a rainforest curriculum package.
