Author Biography
Kate Duke was the author and illustrator of many award-winning picture books as well as Archaeologists Dig for Clues in the Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science series.
Reviews"In this appealing picture book, two children tour a rain forest, while their friendly guide fills them in on matters such as leaf-cutter mounds, epiphytes, rainfall, and forest layers. Like the original Magic School Bus books, this upbeat volume offers information through clearly written paragraphs of text, characters' comments in speech balloons, and illustrated fact boxes. An inviting book that conveys concepts simply and effectively. This informative volume from the dependable Let's-Read-and-Find-Out science series offers an uncommonly readable introduction to rain forests. Instructions for making a terrarium are appended." - Booklist (starred review)
