(3) 4-6 Using the alphabet strictly as an organizing principle, Lynch describes twenty-six animals, plants, and natural phenomena of the Arctic--from aurora borealis to lousewort to zooplankton--using vivid analogies and anecdotes. Clear color photographs accompany each half-page-long profile. Balancing the familiar with the unusual, this book offers a broad look at the surprisingly diverse ecology of the Arctic.
