Conversational prose and photorealistic black-and-white artwork--punctuated by four jaw-dropping full-color spreads--evoke the whir of cicadas and the low call of a pheasant. Pages fill with ants and elephants, leopards and hornbills, gibbons and bats, as animals spread and fertilize seeds to help maintain a magnificent old-growth forest. Every living thing in the rain forest is interconnected, and a dazzling full-color index guide at the end of the book challenges readers to circle back and marvel at animals they may have missed in the dense foliage. Meticulously researched and visually arresting, this creative tour de force is a young conservationist's dream: the ecotour of a lifetime.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMartin Jenkins \u003c\/b\u003eis a conservation biologist and the award-winning author of many books for children, including \u003ci\u003eThe Emperor's Egg, \u003c\/i\u003e illustrated by Jane Chapman; \u003ci\u003eA World of Plants, \u003c\/i\u003e illustrated by James Brown; and \u003ci\u003eUnder Threat: An Album of Endangered Animals, \u003c\/i\u003e illustrated by Tom Frost.
