Meltdown  Cover Image Book Book

Meltdown / Written by Anita Sanchez ; illustrated by Lily Padula.

Sanchez, Anita, 1956- (author.). Padula, Lily, (illustrator.).

Summary:

"Meltdown is an illustrated, middle-grade science book that tells the story of glaciers--the ancient, frozen landforms that are essential for the health of the planet. But all is not well: The glaciers are melting, faster and faster every year, and their disappearance will fundamentally change the world as we know it. Through immersive text, and rich, realistic illustrations, readers will learn what glaciers are, how they form, and about the vital role that they play in regulating our planets temperature and connecting our ecosystems. At the same time Meltdown will introduce kids to the "what" the "how" and the "why" of climate change, exploring what will happen to our planet, and to us if the glaciers keep disappearing." -- Provided by publisher.
