About This Book
A parent should reach for this book when their child begins asking big, complex questions about the environment, extinction, and their own place in the natural world. "Biodiversity" moves beyond simple stories about saving animals to explain the scientific concept of life's interconnectedness. It explores diverse ecosystems, from rainforests to oceans, and details the intricate web that links every living thing. Through its clear explanations, the book fosters a deep sense of curiosity and wonder, along with empathy for all creatures. It's best for older children (10-14) ready to tackle a more scientific, text-rich resource. This book is an excellent choice for building a foundational understanding of ecology and conservation, empowering your child with the vocabulary and concepts to engage with current environmental news.
