A Place for... series Written by Melissa Stewart Illustrated by Higgins Bond
While reminding children of the interconnectedness of our world, this series helps them learn basic facts about each species, including where they live, what they eat, and how they benefit plants and other animals. Sidebars throughout the book contain information on human action that has harmed the various animals, efforts that have been made to reverse the damage (many of them remarkably successful), and a variety of ways people can protect the natural world. Pointers on how kids can help in their own neighborhoods are also included. HC: $16.95 / 978-1-56145-762-5 PB: $7.95 / 978-1-56145-763-2
