Encyclopedia of The Living World

Life on Earth runs from single-celled organisms to the largest mammals, and this reference volume maps that range for young readers. Entries group living things by habitat and by kind, with illustration, labelled diagrams and short explanations of behaviour, adaptation and food chains. Coverage extends to plant life and to the pressures that human activity places on ecosystems, written in language a school student can follow without a teacher at hand. What makes it useful: • Grouped entries covering animals, plants and the habitats that support them • Labelled artwork that backs up school biology projects • Plain explanations of behaviour, adaptation and ecological balance • A browsing format that rewards short, repeated visits Students, nature-minded families and classroom libraries are the natural audience for this Seekosity Books encyclopedia, stocked by Boipoka.
