A carregar... Polar: Wildlife at the Ends of the Earthpor L. E. Carmichael
Nenhum(a) Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro.  eduscapes | May 18, 2023 |   The beautiful artistry of Byron Eggenschwiler makes it more real and for us to have more appreciation of all of the wildlife that many of us will never be able to visit. I loved it and so will my family. Well suited for reading WITH someone of any age including ESL, and great for gifting to anyone, but especially to any school or your public library! I requested and received a free temporary e-book on Adobe Digital Editions from Kids Can Press via NetGalley. Thank you! (  ) jetangen4571 | Mar 15, 2023 | sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
"At opposite ends of the Earth, the polar regions could not be farther apart. And yet the animals who live in the Arctic and Antarctica have a lot in common. They have adapted to live in the world's harshest environments, surviving extreme cold and continuous days of darkness. In this beautiful book, author L.E. Carmichael and illustrator Byron Eggenschwiler take readers on a journey to explore the animal adaptions that make life possible in these polar habitats. Readers will learn about a lynx's "snowshoe paws" that help it move across the Arctic snow, how a penguin "toboggans" over the ice to reach Antarctica's waters and so much more. But the planet is changing -- faster than scientists could have predicted. And the polar regions are warming faster than any other part of our planet. What does this mean for the creatures that live there? And what does it mean for us? Incredibly timely and relevant, Polar offers a glimpse into two of the most fascinating -- and rapidly changing -- places on Earth."-- Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
