The Everglades

The Everglades is an incredibly unique ecosystem. It's so unique, there's no other place on Earth called an "everglade"! It's the breeding ground for wading birds, filters and supplies water to the people that live around it, and is so important to the survival of species in south Florida that much of it has been protected as a national park. Readers travel through the "river of grass" in this accessible volume, introducing the natural wonder that is the Everglades.
