The Forest That Grows Around Me

Product Description

This richly illustrated concertina book takes the reader from below the forest floor, through shrubs, branches and leaves into the emergent layer, following a forest ecosystem from the base of a tree to its very top.

Exploring a rainforest on one side of the concertina, and a temperate forest on the other side, The Forest That Grows Around Me celebrates the importance of forest ecosystems around the world.

For example, on your journey, you will meet:

• Squirrels and chipmunks
• Black bears and bats
• Armadillos and sloths
• Green anacondas and hummingbirds
• Jaguars and spider monkeys

With a primary focus on the conservation of these important ecosystems The Forest That Grounds Around Me explores how these forest environments survive and thrive, and what we need to do to protect them. The beauty and variety of forest life are brought to life by Vuon Illustration's rich illustrations.
