(4) YA Biomes of the Earth series. Illustrated by Richard Garratt. Each volume of this extremely dense, textbooklike series first begins with a preface defining biome, next moves on to that biome's geography and geology, then covers topics including biodiversity, history, and ecology. The plethora of well-captioned maps, diagrams, charts, and inset text boxes and photos breaks up the highly scientific writing. Pages are color-coded for quick reference. There are five other spring 2006 books in this series. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Biomes of the Earth titles: Deserts, Grasslands, Taiga, Tundra, and Wetlands.
