What's Wetlands About

Publisher Summary

A timely, award-winning first book on wetlands for young naturalists and conservationists. A classroom favorite! Wetlands are some of the world’s most at-risk environments today. In this addition to the award-winning About Habitats series, author and educator Cathryn Sill explores the major attributes of wetlands and demonstrates their remarkable diversity using examples from around the globe. She uses simple, easy-to-understand language to teach children what wetlands are, what kinds of animals and plants live there, and how wetlands help maintain the delicate balance of Earth’s environments. John Sill’s detailed, full-color illustrations reflect the wide range of wetlands―from salt marshes to tropical mangrove swamps. A glossary and afterword provide further fascinating details about the wetlands, inspiring readers to learn more.
