More about Meadows of the Sea:
These underwater flowering plants evolved from land plants millions of years ago. Often called "the lungs of the sea," seagrass meadows are found on every continent except Antarctica. Within this ecosystem is an abundance of marine life, including many species of fish, mammals, reptiles, and invertebrates. And beyond providing shelter and food for these inhabitants and visitors, seagrass plays an important role in the health of our planet. Seagrass lessens the effects of climate change and even helps filter out plastics and pollutants awash in the ocean. But this important ecosystem is under threat from many human activities. It's time to pay attention to this vital space on Earth.
Through lyrical text and ethereal artwork, the wonders of the awe-inspiring world of seagrass comes to life for young readers. Back matter includes information about the diverse species making their homes in seagrass, along with a glossary of terms.
More about A Pathway for Pollinators:
Flitter. Flutter. Buzz. Hum. Come watch a meadow thrum.
But what happens when a meadow meets a metropolis? There’s not much pollen to be found with steel buildings, concrete roads, and primly trimmed lawns. So this classroom plans and builds urban gardens to create an inviting pathway for pollinators to visit.
With lively, lyrical language and beguiling illustrations, A Pathway for Pollinators provides an upbeat and actionable approach to an important environmental issue, empowering readers with the tools to create a habitat for wildlife, grow healthy plants, and support local ecosystems.
