Pool Party! - Hardcover

by Amy Hevron (Author), Amy Hevron (Illustrator)

Discover the tiny, fascinating world that exists among the leaves of a rainforest plant in this new book in an illuminating nonfiction picture book series that explores how even the smallest habitats play big roles in nature.

Welcome to a rainforest celebration! Hear rain showers tickle the treetops! See rainbows color the canopy! Watch raindrops dance down into the forest...and form freshwater pools among the leaves of a bromeliad plant.

Did you know that a tiny habitat can form in a small pool of water among the leaves of a plant? In the rainforest, bromeliad plants live in the trees and have wide leaves that catch rainwater. These rainwater pools become vibrant homes for small critters like tree frogs and insects and food sources for big critters like monkeys and parrots!

With snappy, funny text and lush illustrations, this book invites curious readers to explore a tiny habitat that's a sky-high pool party in full swing.
