Antarctica

Young readers are taken on a journey to the frozen continent of Antarctica, where they learn about its harsh climate, massive ice sheets, and striking landforms. The book introduces the hardy plants and animals that survive in this extreme environment, from penguins to tiny mosses. It also explores the people and nations that have staked claims on the continent, showing how Antarctica is connected to the rest of the world. Simple language and clear illustrations make these facts accessible for early elementary students.
