Staying Alive: The Story of a Food Chain

Through the eyes of a forest, a prairie, and an ocean, the book follows the flow of energy from sunlight to plants, herbivores, and predators, showing how every organism depends on the next link in the chain. It explains the roles of producers, consumers, and decomposers, and highlights what happens when one part of the chain is disrupted. Designed for readers aged 9-13, the text combines clear diagrams with real-world examples to illustrate the delicate balance that keeps all living things alive.
