The Coniferous Forest Biome

By Colin Grady

A brown bear lumbers toward his den deep in the woods, a woodpecker taps away at a pine tree, and a chipmunk scurries to gather seeds that have fallen on the ground. Welcome to the coniferous forest biome. With easy-to-follow text and color photographs, readers learn what a coniferous forest is, which plants and animals live there, how they have adapted to their environment, and how forest life is threatened due to human factors like logging and pollution. A follow-up activity encourages readers to consider the many ways in which the coniferous forest is important to humans and the abundant life that makes this biome home.
