This beginner?s guide explores the major attributes of rivers and streams and showcases their remarkable diversity using examples of waterways from around the globe.
In this addition to the About Habitats series, award-winning author Cathryn Sill uses simple, easy-to-understand language to teach children what rivers and streams are and explain how various species of animals and plants have adapted to life in or along these waterways. John Sill?s detailed, full-color illustrations show the characteristics of the world?s different rivers and streams?from the mountain streams of the Alps to the mighty Amazon River in South America. A glossary and afterword provide further fascinating details about rivers and streams to inspire readers to learn more.
