Rainforest introduces young readers to the variety of life found across tropical and temperate forests. Its 13 double-page illustrations organize the subject around rainforest layers, types, and locations, with examples ranging from Amazon riverbanks and Costa Rican treetops to forests in Rwanda, Alaska, and Indonesia. Animals share the spotlight with the plants that shape these habitats, including kapok trees, teak, and epiphytes. The wide-format Panorama presentation gives the book a visual structure, while its coverage of ecosystems and species connects with science topics for grades 3–5.

Book overview

Go on an illustrated journey through nature's unseen habitats in this kids' book about life under the canopy.

Explore the most abundant habitats on Earth, bursting with plants and animals of every shape and size, in this book about rainforests for children aged 9+.

Rainforest reveals the dizzying diversity of life in these fascinating forests. Caiman and capybara crowd Amazon riverbanks, ants scare off elephants in the Congo, and birds and butterflies flit through the treetops of Costa Rica.

This nature book for children offers:
  • Material that supports the science curriculum in grades 3-5, perfect for nature-loving children and reluctant readers.
  • An in-depth look at Earth's incredible rainforests and the animals that live there, as well as the different rainforest layers, types, and locations.
  • The fifth title in DK's wide-format Panorama series featuring 13 striking double-page illustrations, each teeming with life.

This illustrated guide lets children discover the incredible diversity of the rainforest. See how mountain gorillas feast on bamboo in Rwanda, bears bound through Alaskan temperate rainforest, and orangutans swing in Indonesia. And of course, none of these would exist without the lush plant life - soaring kapok trees, sturdy teak, and tenacious epiphytes throng the forests. Packed full of iconic animal species, this book shows life on Earth at its most vivid and vibrant.
