Winner of the Skipping Stones Honor Award in the Ecology and Nature Books category
The boreal forest is the last great forest wilderness on earth. It drapes across the subarctic right around the world. It pervades our myths and folklore. It provides us with wood and water. It freshens the very air we breathe.
Jane Drake and Ann Love take the reader on an unforgettable journey around the world to view the boreal forest. They show the reader the seasons in the bush, the science and myth of wolves, the life cycle of the woods. From the Siberian Taiga, where tigers and sika deer live, to the Old World forests of Norway, from the Boreal Shield of North America to the birch forest of Northwest Russia, we are introduced to a region of incredible importance. Despite our reliance on it, we have placed the "lungs of the earth" under siege with clear-cutting, acid rain, and even radioactivity.
Cool Woods is not only informative and beautiful, but it is a call to action to anyone who cares about our planet.

Cool Woods: A Trip around the World's Boreal Forest
What: This book contains information not just on how water pollution affects marine life, but also our environment. It touches on acid rain, which I believe is an aspect of water pollution that gets left out of a lot of informational texts on the subject. It also goes into how we can help lesson our impact on our water bodies.
So What: I felt that this book was interesting and very relevant for children who are interested in how pollution is affecting our water systems.
Now What: I think this would be a great book for a science course. I also think it's a great way to introduce children to what's going on with our water systems as well as get them motivated to do something to change how our waters are treated.
