Describes how forest animals get their energy from food chains.

Introduces the rain forest food chain, describing the parts of a food chain and identifying some of the consumers, producers, and decomposers in the rain forests around the world.

An ecosystem is a community of living and non-living things connected to one another where they live. Young readers are introduced to some of the plants and animals in a forest ecosystem. Children are encouraged to learn more about food chains in a forest and to draw a food chain of their own.

Seeds to mouse to weasel to owl. That's a simple food chain in a deciduous forest. Food chains are fascinating! Every environment has factors that affect the flow of energy in its food chains--all the way up to you! This beautifully illustrated series explores the plants and animals that live in each ecosystem, the adaptations its plant and animal have, and how the flow of energy creates the food chain links. Discover what's for dinner in the food chains and webs in each environment with easy-to-read text, sidebars, and back matter.

A forest is an ecosystem with a variety of plant and animal life—from trees to deer. These plants and animals are connected through food chains, or the passing of energy from one living thing to another. In this volume, readers explore a forest for themselves, learning about the living things that can be found there. Informative text and fun fact boxes explain the connections between forest creatures, and vibrant photographs of forest wildlife fill each page. Readers can even visualize the way food chains come together as they study a detailed forest food web.

Young readers are introduced to some of the plants and animals in a forest habitat. They are encouraged to learn more about food chains in a forest and to draw one of their own.

"This book explores the rich food chains and webs that exist in a rain forest habitat. It equips readers with crucial vocabulary, using examples from that habitat to explain the roles of producers, consumers and decomposers, and illustrates how living things depend upon each other. Readers learn how fragile food chains can be, how they can be broken, and what we can do to prevent this."--

"Vibrant photographs and carefully leveled text introduce early fluent readers to the rain forest biome and the many food chains it hosts. Includes activity, glossary, and index."--
