Protecting the Rain Forest

24 pp. | Checkerboard | September, 1999 | Library ISBN 1-57765-022-0 $$13.95
(4) K-3 Rain Forest series. This book offers a very general overview of rainforest conservation: the rainforest's role in global weather; endangered animals; the effects of logging, mining, and farming; forest reserves; and the outlook for the future. The text consists of short, simple sentences, which make for a choppy, often plodding read, but the large color photographs will capture readers' interest. A list of websites is appended. Glos., ind.
