This is a beautiful informational text, The illustrations are artful and the information is presented in a narrative manner that is pleasing, but still instructional.

From glancing at the cover of this book, I was drawn into the world of The Boreal Forest.
It is such a mesmerising place, to think that somewhere that magical is real is mind blowing.
This book takes the sometimes hard to follow facts of life and adds them to a stunningly illustrated book, making them interesting and easy to read.

The Boreal Forest is such a lovely and educational book. It explains the geography and characteristics of the biome. The book is adequate for higher levels in elementary schools. Or can be read and guided for younger kids. Although it is informative, the book also includes small lyrical stories of nature and animals that younger kids would easily understand. It also includes definitions of each terminology that may be hard to understand at first.
The illustrations are completely amazing with so much detailed. The kids would be intrigued by them! Thank you for ebook copy.

I am an Environmental Science major as well as an educator at a nature center in my state. I thought this book is great and would be a good resource to use if you are educating young kids about the environment/nature. I loved the illustrations and it covered a wide range of topics. I will have to get a physical copy of this to share with the kids!

I really loved the illustrations in this beautiful little book about four seasons in the Boreal forest that spans a dozen countries across the globe. There's a really lovely feel to it as the reader is introduced to all different animals, fish, insects and more through the seasons. It also talks about the water cycle, the carbon cycle, and climate change. It's packed with scientific facts while not overwhelming the page and letting the watercolor illustrations set the tone. This would make a great book for a nature study shelf or for unit studies regarding animals or this region.
I read a temporary digital ARC of this book for the purpose of review.

Interesting and informative book about the forests that grow close to the Arctic, like a scarf around the world, as it says in the book. Most in Canada and Russia, this book looks at this vast forest through all four seasons.

Becasue the indigenous people have lived there the longest, the author contacted various peoples and glans to get their take on the forest, and the issues that climate change have brought to it, as well the history of change with this area.
I found this very informative, and well written.
Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.

Gorgeous palette and artwork, a lovely immersion into the forest, with all of the flora and fauna involved. What a great way to interest a child in Botany, Nature, Animal Science, ecosystem symbiosis. Pretty enough to gift.
