About Habitats Polar Regions Cathryn Sill

Author and former educator Cathryn Sill uses simple, easy-to-understand language to teach children what 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 the 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 further details. Great for early childhood and elementary units on geography and habitats, nature and environment.

The award-winning About Habitats series introduces children to specific habitats and their living and nonliving components. Each book provides information about the nature and characteristics of the habitat while the full-page illustrations expand on that information.
