Book by O'Hare, Ted

Who would want to live on the freezing polar tundra? Actually, plenty of animals and plants do. Full-color photographs present animals such as penguins, polar bears, and the arctic tern while the informative text supplies the facts about the animals that thrive in this frigid, seemingly unwelcoming habitat.

Deserts can sometimes appear devoid of life. In reality, life abounds in this harsh environment. Students will take a closer look at animals, such as hawks, snakes, and tortoises that have unique adaptations for surviving in this dry biome.

Readers will take a virtual hike through the different zones of a mountain, learning about the plants and animals that inhabit each one. Engaging text and full-color photographs of pikas, mountain lions, and bighorn sheep will make students feel like they are right there, breathing the crisp mountain air—all from the comfort of their seats.
