A spectacular tour of a rainforest, with a convincing, affecting
case to make about conservation - underscored by extraordinary
illustrations. Tropical rainforests are amazing places. More kinds
of animals and plants live in them than live anywhere else in the
world. This one is in Malaysia, in South East Asia. Let's go and
take a look... So begins this magnificent new book from
conservation-biologist Martin Jenkins and fine artist Vicky White,
the award-winning team behind Can We Save the Tiger? and Ape. The
breathtakingly-detailed illustrations are packed with life, from
hornbills to gibbons, bats and the much-loved Asian Elephant, while
the conversational text expertly weaves in complex biology to show
young readers both how life in the jungle is intrinsically linked,
and why we must work to protect it. With a powerful environmental
message, this is a tour de force from two remarkable talents - and
a perfect choice for fans of Robert Macfarlane and Jackie Morris'
The Lost Words, or Ben Rothery's Hidden Planet. "Informative but
never patronising, this book is guaranteed to instil in young
readers a sense of the beauty and fragility of nature." The
Independent on Sunday on Can We Save the Tiger?
