Riassunto

Young Person's Guide to the Prairie is a book which goes beyond the basic field guide to describe the prairie as a living system. Anyone interested in prairies, natural history, and ecology, will find many complex concepts explained in an easy to read, understandable writing style.What will the reader learn? What a prairie is, and what is unique about prairie systems. Why prairies are where they are, how they got there, how they stayed there. Different types of prairies - what is different and why? How can you put together an understanding of climate, soil, glaciers, plants, animals, and microorganisms, and make sense of it all? What is a system in nature, how do living things and non-living things work together to create an interacting system? Examples of plants and animals one might find on a prairie and how they have adapted to life on the prairie.
