The Incredible Biodiversity of Life on Earth

Part of the CitizenKid series

Written by Rochelle Strauss & illustrated by Margot ThompsonĀ 

If every known species on Earth were a leaf on a tree, that tree would have 1,750,000 leaves. Since humans count for just one leaf on the tree, we have a lot to learn about the millions of other forms of life with which we share the world. A dazzlingly illustrated and child-friendly introduction to biodiversity, Tree of Life shows how living things are classified into five kingdoms- and how each has much to tell us about all aspects of life on our planet. 40 pages

"Striking, lucid, and deceptively simple." -School Library Journal (Grades 5-7)

"This introduction to the five kingdoms of living things does an excellent job of helping young readers understand how scientists organize and classify all living things. For each kingdom, the author provides a brief introduction, an estimate of the number of species in the kingdom, and thumbnail sketches of unusual or illustrative species." -Kirkus Reviews (Ages 9-12)
