5 out of 5 stars Great book for kids   October 25, 2007
This book is great for older youngsters, but my 5 year old love it. The pictures are beautiful too. Very informative


5 out of 5 stars Great, whether you get to the rain forest or not   March 14, 2002

The One Small Square series is wonderful: the concept is that you take a hypothetical square foot of an environment- woods, seashore, arctic tundra, rainforest, etc.- and explore it at all levels, from underground to the sky. Each book is extensively illustrated with all of the inter-connected layers of life- from fungus to megafauna- in the Square. On the margin of most of the 2-page spreads are activities that you can do, no matter where you live. Food chains, life cycles seasons are explored, and the back section has an identification guide to all of the life forms presented in the book.pWe took One Small Square: Tropical Rain Forest with us on a trip to the Brazilian rainforest with our 5 7 year olds. The book was great- for the grown ups the kids! We used it as a guide to identify many of the animals plants we saw, as background to help the girls understand what they were going to see, as reading on the long trips up the river. We did many of the activities- some before, some during, and some after the trip. Our guide was so impressed with it that he ordered a copy for himself, saying that it was hard to find something with so much information that was both accurate and interesting to people at many different levels of knowledge. Highly recommended!
