Life in the Arctic, animal by animal

Polar bears share these pages with less familiar Arctic wildlife, including ptarmigans, wolverines, narwhals and puffins. The guide ranges across animals living on land, in the ocean and along the coast, highlighting the different ways they survive in the region’s icy conditions. Photographs show the creatures in their habitats, while the Level 2 text offers broad nonfiction coverage for children beginning to read independently. The mix of familiar species and lesser-known animals gives the book a clear focus on the variety of life found in Earth’s far north.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ready to read nonfiction independently at the Level 2 stage.
  • Young readers interested in Arctic wildlife and animal habitats.
  • Adults seeking an illustrated introductory book about animals for children.
