Who Needs an Iceberg?: An Arctic Ecosystem

By Karen Patkau

Book Overview

Tundra introduces the first three books in its important new ecosystems series. Each title celebrates the world's diversity by presenting a different ecosystem- its land and water, its animals and plants. The art is brimming with creatures and ecological features, described in fact-filled notes at the end of each book and in a useful glossary and map. Who Needs an Iceberg? The Arctic ecosystem is changing rapidly. The Arctic Ice Cap is melting, the habitat for the creatures that live in the north is shrinking, and the earth is warming up. The impact is enormous for all of us. Not only is each book informative and beautiful, but it is a call to action for everybody who cares about the world in which we live.
