Wildlife photographer and science writer Wayne Lynch takes young readers on an exploration of the Arctic. Using a plant, an animal or a phenomenon for each letter of the alphabet, Lynch describes the unique ways in which systems for living differ where temperature and light can be amazingly extreme. The book also dispels the myth of the Arctic as a perpetually frozen landscape by introducing us to the birds, mammals, insects and plant life that thrive in the short, yet glorious sun-filled days of summer. Written in an informative and easy-to-read style, this is a useful work for teachers and young readers alike.
