Nature's Green Umbrella: A Colorful Picture Book About Rainforest Ecosystems for Kids (Ages 4-8)

Far more info than I was expecting... not appropriate for the TK to K classes as a read aloud. I love science and teach science, but found myself nodding off in trying to review this book. It has good info, but just is a bit too much right now for this family.

Great book! Great price! Super fast delivery 😊

The book was great. We did a week long study of the rain forest and the children learned so much. We have a small mixed age group of students; third through forth grade and the students loved the book. I read the book to them and the book kept their attention. They really enjoyed learning about the many animals that inhabit the rain forest and they were surprised to learn about the plants that live in the rain forest that are used in medicine. The students ended our study by discussing ways to save our planet's rain forest. I would recommend the book to anyone.

I am a Gail Gibbons fan. I use all her material in the classroom. Well written and wonderful and is beautiful to see.

favorite among the rain forest books.

It's a little long to do as a read aloud with my students and it wasn't a big hit for a silent reading book. However, there are a lot of good facts for doing rainforest research.

There isn't a single book that she's written that my kids haven't adored. This one is packed full of interesting facts and beautiful pictures.

GREAT BOOK! I'm a teacher and will use this as a learning tool about rainforests. The pictures alone teach a lot, and I love that it explains every level of the rainforest. Gail Gibbons does it once again!
