A Freshwater Food Web

By Cari Meister

Book Overview

Take an illustrated narrative nonfiction journey to a wetland in the northern United States and discover how animals and plants in a freshwater ecosystem survive in an interconnected food web. Splash! The wetland is home to many water-loving animals. Ducks and frogs munch on bugs and plants, while a heron and snake lurk in the reeds. All animals keep an eye out for the top predator: the bald eagle! Vibrant artwork illustrates the link between producers, consumers, and apex predators while carefully leveled text weaves a cohesive story that explains the importance of each element in the ecosystem. A food web model summarizes the information, making this an excellent resource for Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) in elementary grades. Perfect for animal lovers, nature enthusiasts, and budding science buffs.
