Summary, etc Covering an immense range of subjects, this series leads children from a general view to a close-up focus on the details of the topic at hand, and includes easy-to-follow projects, new vocabulary words, and suggestions for interesting places to visit and explore.

Discover the incredible diversity of animals and plant life at both poles.
