"This is a story of light and dark." Against a lush backdrop of
lichen-covered trees, the peppered moth lies hidden. Until the
world begins to change ... A clever picture book text about the
extraordinary way in which animals have evolved, intertwined with
the complication of human intervention. This remarkable paperback
edition of the amazing story of the peppered moth is the perfect
introduction to natural selection and evolution for children. Along
come people with their magnificent machines which stain the land
with soot. In a beautiful landscape changed by humans how will one
little moth survive? Powerful and visually spectacular, Moth is the
remarkable evolution story that captures the struggle of animal
survival against the background of an evolving human world in a
unique and atmospheric introduction to Darwin's theory of Natural
Selection.
This exquisitely illustrated treasury of narrative non fiction
stories about the natural world, organised season by season and
around the world, shows children the infinite beauty and variety of
nature in every part of the planet. Arranged around the full cycle
of a calendar year, each month chapter features four stories each
from a different part of the world to show that while somewhere it
is hot summer, somewhere else is in the middle of winter, while
some are dry and others are rainy. 48 story spreads tell
fascinating single stories of animals and nature from each month of
the year, showing how the changing of the seasons takes place
around the world, promoting an international sense of the weather,
seasons and cycles of nature from very big, to ever-so-small. This
captivating book will transport readers across the globe, teaching
them about the different kinds of weather and wildlife all across
the planet.
Each page has clues to help the young zoologist discover the body
parts required to equip the most amazing animals for the safari
survival. By pushing in place the snap-on tails, scales, claws and
jaws stored in the pull-out tray, children complete each scene and
discover what makes each animal unique.
