Duncan introduces the animals and plants of seven North American habitats: alpine tundra, kelp forest, desert, prairie, salt marsh, swamp, and the Arctic. In each section, four pages introduce individual plants and animals through many, small illustrations accompanied by short, descriptive paragraphs. A large painting follows on a double-page spread, showing the environment teeming with life and giving readers an opportunity to identify species as they might appear in the wild. Silhouetted against a white background, the small paintings are clearer than the large spreads, in which Duncan notes that she includes more species than one would find, in order to facilitate the search-and-find concept. An intriguing supplement to more traditional books on biomes. First Edition (1996); So Stated. First Printing indicated by a complete numerical sequence.
