Vivid nature photography is the star of this introduction to the six most common biomes. Each title features a map showing the biome's locations in the world, a description of the climate and habitat, and chapters on a selection of the biome's interesting and colorful plants, big animals, and small animals. While the series is not comprehensive enough to be a sole resource, the Crayola tie-in has the potential to intrigue reluctant readers. It also gives educators an opportunity to incorporate art themes into science classes. A glossary, a 'To Learn More' section, and an index are included. VERDICT An appealing primer. Recommended for large collections and elementary environmental science lessons.--School Library Journal -- Journal

Author Information

Mary Lindeen has been interested in learning about the world around her since she was a little girl growing up on a farm in Iowa. She thought learning new things was so much fun that she became an elementary school teacher. She loved sharing books with her students and wanted to know more about how those books were made, so she became an editor. Now she reads, writes, and edits children's books and still loves learning new things. She and her son live in Minnesota and enjoy traveling together whenever and wherever they can, including making frequent trips back to that farm in Iowa.
