sloths, graceful caimans and stalking jaguars that make up the Amazon rainforest, while giving young readers an
understanding of the interdependency of life.
Exotic environments like the tropical rain forest have long held a fascination for young readers. Through singsong text,
kids will discover how all living things in the rain forest rely on one another for their existence, and that when one
of these animals or plants is killed off or goes extinct, the web of life is broken. Luminous paintings by Michael
Rothman capture the untamed beauty of this timeless, endangered environment. This book is a must have for any young
naturalist (ages 3-8) hoping to learn about how all life is connected in the natural world.
Other Books in the Series: HERE IS ANTARCTICA, HERE IS THE AFRICAN SAVANNA, HERE IS THE ARCTIC WINTER, HERE IS THE CORAL
REEF, HERE IS THE SOUTHWESTERN DESERT and HERE IS THE WETLAND. Free downloadable activities can be found on the
publisher's website.
