Böcker av Mia Pelletier

This easy to follow, beautiful book is filled with fun, useful facts, including where to look for eggs and nests during the short Arctic summer and how to recognize each bird's call on the wind.

Akpa, a thick-billed murre, emerges from his egg, high on an Arctic cliff and learns that he must embark on a long migration before he is able to fly.

From the many animals that live and hunt at the floe edge, to the hundreds of insects that abound on the summer tundra, Avati gives a detailed bird's-eye view of the fascinating ways that animals, plants, and insects co-exist in the Arctic ecosystem.
