Tropical Forests (Biomes Atlases)<br />

Jackson, Tom / Goddard, Jolyon 682 .323 JAC<br />

Each book in this series provides readers <strong>with</strong> a deeper underst<strong>and</strong>ing of the world's biological communities, <strong>with</strong><br />

each title focusing on a particular biome, biome type, groups of biomes or system. The books contain an<br />

introduction to the Earth's principal biomes <strong>with</strong> enough depth for project work. The atlas approach gives the<br />

series a relevance to the geography curriculum.<br />

Also known as the rain forests, this biome is hot <strong>and</strong> humid all year round. The ecosystem here is incredibly<br />

diverse. It's also very fragile.<br />

Babbitt, Natalie.<br />

640.402<br />

The Tuck family is confronted <strong>with</strong> an agonizing situation when they discover that a ten-year-old girl <strong>and</strong> a<br />

malicious stranger now share their secret about a spring whose water prevents one from ever growing any older.<br />

Imagine coming upon a fountain of youth in a forest. To live forever--isn't that everyone's ideal? For the Tuck<br />

family, eternal life is a reality, but their reaction to their fate is surprising. Award winner Natalie Babbitt<br />

(Knee-Knock Rise, The Search for Delicious) outdoes herself in this sensitive, moving adventure in which<br />

10-year-old Winnie Foster is kidnapped, finds herself helping a murderer out of jail, <strong>and</strong> is eventually offered the<br />

ultimate gift--but doesn't know whether to accept it. Babbitt asks profound questions about the meaning of life <strong>and</strong><br />

death, <strong>and</strong> leaves the reader <strong>with</strong> a greater appreciation for the perfect cycle of nature. Intense <strong>and</strong> powerful,<br />

exciting <strong>and</strong> poignant, Tuck Everlasting will last forever--in the reader's imagination. An ALA Notable Book. (Ages<br />

9 to 12)<br />

abstract mathematical ideas, encouraging all students to communicate mathematically.<br />

MathKeys TM is designed for students in grades K-6 <strong>and</strong> focuses on eight major content areas: patterns, whole<br />

numbers, fractions, measurement, money, geometry, probability, <strong>and</strong> pre-algebra. Students can interact <strong>with</strong><br />

each program in either English or Spanish. Additionally, all student activity materials are available in both English<br />

<strong>and</strong> Spanish.<br />
