Book overview

Antarctica is both the coldest and driest continent. This icy continent isn't home to any native peoples, but every summer thousands of people live and work at Antarctica's scientific research stations. Antarctica is also home to the South Pole and about 5 million penguins. In clear, concise language, this book explores the landscapes, geography, weather, natural resources, people, cultures, plants, and animals of the Antarctic continent.
