Summary

Embark on a journey through the magical world of the rainforest and introduce little nature-lovers to an enchanting, yet threatened, tropical world

The rainforests are bursting with life! Sweep aside the liana vines, hop over the giant roots of the kapok tree, and discover magnificent tigers roaming the jungle。 In this enchanting children's book, you'll discover amazing rainforest animals, learn about the diverse range of life-giving plants, and find out why the Amazon rainforest is known as the "lungs" of our Earth。

This colorful children's book captures the spirit of the rainforest through its beautifully detailed illustrations by Charlotte Milner。 It has simple, clear text that is accessible to less confident readers but a strong message about deforestation and climate change will captivate older readers too。

From the nocturnal kinkajou to the stinky rafflesia flower - there is plenty to discover in this plant and animal encyclopedia。 Perfect for kids aged 5-9 years, it also includes a fun gardening activity section with instructions on how to grow your own miniature rainforest at home。

Packed with information, this child-friendly nonfiction book provides an informative deep-dive into an intriguing subject matter。 Kids will be able to sift through this with an adult or on their own and revisit again and again。 Topics are well organized and indexed to make those revisits easier。All four books in this series have a great balance of stunning info graphics and colorful illustrations to pair with the narrative。 I especially love the page spread depicting the different layers of the forest。 There is a lot of attention to detail given to all the pages。Rainforests are of particular interest to many children and this book does such a great job celebrating the biodiversity and importance of rainforests while also addressing the tough themes like climate change。 This book would be great to pair with science lessons on biomes or really for any child interested in nature。**Note: I was given a review copy of this book by DK Kids。 Opinions are my own。 。。。more

And that at least two meters of rain falls in the rainforest every year? The world's rainforests are packed with amazing animals and plants, from the deadly poison dart frog, to the stinky rafflesia flower--there is plenty to discover! As our planet's climate crisis becomes even more critical, with forest fires raging in the Amazon, The Rainforest Book is the perfect way to introduce little nature-lovers to this enchanting yet threatened world。 This celebration of the rainforest shows children just how important it is, and reminds them that it is up to us to care for our planet and its wildlife。The Rainforest Book is a well researched, illustrated, and written book。 I thought the information was very interesting, and I learned a few new things even though I thought myself well versed on the subject。 I liked that the information was well rounded but straightforward with no judgement, just the facts。 I thought the illustrations and page formats were very well thought out and executed。 It captured, built up, and maintained my attention, and I expect it will do the same for other readers。 I also liked that in all the information, there is also detailed things that can help readers make choices that will lessen their impact on the environment in general, and the rainforests specifically。 There are opportunities for the readers to get hands on, and to have an impact。 My only complaint is one I often have with nonfiction materials, and that is that there was no suggested reading or similarly themed addition in the endpages。 I was glad for the creature index, but suggested books, websites, or organizations listed in one place at the end of the book would make me very happy。I think fans of Milner's previous book will want to add The Rainforest Book to their collection。 Readers that have not been following this collection, but love learning about nature and the environment will also get a great deal from this book。 。。。more

I read this book with my 5 year old daughter。 To be quite honest, I completely expected her to be bored because there is so much information in the book。 However, I was delightedly surprised that she loved every moment of it and asked to read it again。 She loved the artwork and she loved learning about the plants and animals in the rainforest。 The book is well thought out and contains a wealth of information for kids of all ages to enjoy。 I highly recommend this book both for reading pleasure an I read this book with my 5 year old daughter。 To be quite honest, I completely expected her to be bored because there is so much information in the book。 However, I was delightedly surprised that she loved every moment of it and asked to read it again。 She loved the artwork and she loved learning about the plants and animals in the rainforest。 The book is well thought out and contains a wealth of information for kids of all ages to enjoy。 I highly recommend this book both for reading pleasure and for an extra supplement for a rainforest curriculum for young kids。 。。。more
