Illustrated by
John Francis.
This oversized book introduces ten ecosystems and their inhabitants. Each illustrated double-page spread features a landscape teeming with flora and fauna, and a foldout that supplies photographs, a map, and general information about the habitat. Brief profiles and questions about the creatures pictured encourage interaction, but too often involve empty queries like "What color am I?" Keys listing the animals depicted are included.
