Seasons of the Estuary Biome
Part of the Biomes series
Estuaries and the lands surrounding them are places of transition from land to sea and from freshwater to salt water. Estuaries are protected from the full force of ocean waves, winds, and storms by the reefs, barrier islands, or fingers of land, mud, or sand that define an estuary's seaward boundary. This title will allow students to develop a model to represent the estuary biome, including the shapes and kinds of land and bodies of water in such an area.
Seasons of the Tundra Biome
Part of the Biomes series
Did you know that the Arctic tundra is the world's youngest biome? Located at latitudes 55° to 70° N, the tundra is a vast and treeless land, which covers about 20 percent of the Earth's surface. The tundra is the world's coldest and driest biome. This book helps students discover the unique features of the world's coldest and driest biome and also synthesize information to describe climates in different regions.
Seasons of the Decidous Forest Biome
Part of the Biomes series
The deciduous forest has four distinct seasons: spring, summer, autumn, and winter. The animals in this biome adapt to the climate by hibernating in the winter and living off the land in the other three seasons. The plants have adapted to the forests by leaning toward the Sun. This book enables students to understand the adaptations that are necessary for plants and animals to live in such diverse conditions.
Seasons Of The Deciduous Forest Biome
Part of the Biomes series

Freshwater Biome
Part of the Biomes series
Readers will learn about the two main types of freshwater biomes, which are standing (ponds and lakes) and flowing (streams and rivers). The text will focus on mainly on the importance of freshwater, as well as the plants and animals that inhabit it. Aligned to Common Core Standards and correlated to state standards. Abdo Kids is a division of ABDO.
Seasons of the Boreal Forest Biome
Part of the Biomes series
In the far-north latitudes, just below the treeless tundra of the polar region, a forest of evergreen trees called the boreal forest encircles the earth. In this book, students explore the biggest terrestrial ecosystem in the world and can make observations comparing the diversity of life in different habitats.
Seasons of the Grassland Biome
Part of the Biomes series
Grassland biomes are unaltered areas of land where grass is the dominant plant life. They are inhabited by grazing mammals, ground-nesting birds, insects, and a few species of reptiles. This book allows students to learn more about the animals that live in grassland biomes and the dangers posed by human exploitation.
Desert Biome
Part of the Biomes series
Readers will learn about the four major desert biomes, which are hot and dry, semiarid, coastal, and cold deserts. The text will focus on the climate and the very special plants and animals that are found in deserts around the world. Aligned to Common Core Standards and correlated to state standards. Abdo Kids is a division of ABDO.
Grassland Biome
Part of the Biomes series
Readers will learn about the two main types of grassland biomes, which are tropical grasslands (savannas) and temperate grasslands. The text will focus on the climate, plants, and animals that are found on grasslands around the world. Aligned to Common Core Standards and correlated to state standards. Abdo Kids is a division of ABDO.
