Books expounding the biodiversity, the flora and the fauna of rainforests will be welcomed. The books can feature either tropical rain forests, or temperate ones. The book has won multiple awards and is sparking deep consideration of the past, present and future of the rainforest. This is intended as a list of picture books for children about the rainforest, fiction or non-fiction, educational or just for fun. The illustrations are so incredibly detailed (there is also a big book edition available on Amazon that is perfect for detail-spotting) that you might be forgiven for thinking that some of them are photographs. If you are looking for a book to stimulate discussion and debate about the effects human beings can have on the natural world, this is the one for you. As a reader, this book manages to make me feel innocent and guilty at the same time and, in a very accessible way, forces the reader to consider the natural environment and how it should be protected and not just for the sake of the future, but for the sake of the past. The question mark that hangs over this beautiful landscape is saved for the very last image. The pictures contain hidden images depicting past inhabitants, teaching the reader how the forest has supported life beyond just the modern snapshot. The story follows a boy and his grandad as they explore a largely untouched wet-tropical rainforest that meets the sea. Where the Forest Meets the Sea is a hauntingly beautiful picture book that forces the reader to consider what is really lost when humans build upon previously untouched landscapes. Books About Germs, Handwashing & Viruses.
Diverse & Inclusive Books for Upper KS2.
