Item Description

Three of these beautifully illustrated books are paperbacks by Melissa Stewart, the award-winning author of more than 180 science books for children. About Melissa Stewart

In simple yet informative language, A Place for Bats introduces children ages 4-8 to ways human action or inaction can affect bat populations and opens kids' minds to a wide range of environmental issues. Artist Higgins Bond's glorious full-color illustrations vividly and accurately depict the bats and their surroundings.

A Place for Butterflies opens young readers’ minds to a wide range of environmental issues.  Stunning illustrations by Higgins Bond and simple, gentle language introduce children ages 5-9 to some of the ways human action and inaction can affect butterfly populations.

We go inside when the rain comes down, but where do animals go? Using clear, simple language, When Rain Falls offers children ages 4-8 a lyrical look at how animals living in forests, fields, wetlands, and deserts behave during a rainstorm. Illustrated by Constance R. Bergum.

The fourth book is the hardcover edition of Amazon River by Sangma Francis. Take a journey through South America along the winding Amazon River, spotting tree frogs, piranhas, snakes and tropical insects along the way. Where does the river begin, and where does it end? Which animals dwell in its murky waters and how much life does it sustain in the habitats all along its banks? Through gorgeous, detailed illustrations, the mysteries of the Amazon are revealed. For readers ages 8-12. 80 pp. Published in 2021.

Details: Books are new, purchased for the Holiday Auction at The Silver Unicorn Bookstore in Acton, MA.
