It's an excellent first discovery book. It tells you a lot about the Rain forest and the river basin. This book shows children the rain forest plants and animals and things destroying this area today. It has many colourful pictures, some on transparent flip pages. From lazy lizards to beautiful birds, from chattering capuchins to wet water lily, this book shows some of the rarest species living in the rain forest. This book would be excellent for children under the age of eleven.
The Rain Forest by Gallimard Jeunesse and Rene Mettler is an excellent book to introduce children to the rainforest. I like the technique of turning the plastic page to reveal the animals. Gallimard introduces food chain, camouflage, and deforestation topics in the book. There is one misleading fact in the book. Mature rainforests do not need to be cut with a machete, only the edge of the rainforest is thick.Thomas Sandusky, Creator of Stories from the Rainforest
Excellent book for 2 year old or up. Great the way the clear pages change the picture from the left to the right. This is a well written book but easy for a young one to enjoy. Love it!
