Crisp color photography dominates this book about Arctic and Antarctic wildlife (although more pages are devoted to residents of the more habitable Arctic regions). Indeed, the text serves primarily to describe plants and animals found in the photos. Helpful information on why the polar regions are cold and snowy and a map are found in the back of the book.
