Book excerpt: The northern coniferous forests are the most extensive in the world, covering large tracts across the boreal regions of North America, Europe, and Asia. This updated edition (1st ed., CH, Dec'88, 26-2133) provides an overview of these forests from the perspective of North America. Pielou (The Energy of Nature, CH, Oct'01, 39-0997; Fresh Water, CH, Mar'99, 36-3926) discusses the types of trees present, the interactions of trees with other organisms, and the fate of forests in a changing environment. The book is aimed at general readers, who might include interested amateurs or students in an introductory forestry course. It introduces tree taxonomy and identification along with commentary on past and present distributions and the basic morphology of trees. Pielou outlines the importance of fungi and insects in interactions and environmental factors, such as storm damage and fire, that can modify the dynamics within forested ecosystems. He presents all information in an ecological context. Informative line drawings, including anatomical details of many organisms, support the text. Because this is an introductory work, suggestions for further reading would have been helpful; however, the book is still useful for newcomers to the subject. Summing Up: Recommended.

Download or read book Evergreens Story written by Ada N. Letelier and published by Strategic Book Publishing Rights Agency. This book was released on 2014-06-09 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evergreen is a sad little tree that doesn't understand her purpose in life. While the different seasons bring many changes to the forest, Evergreen remains the same, year in and year out. This all changes when a family comes into the forest and takes Evergreen home with them. It is then that Evergreen undergoes a transformation that leaves her reveling in the joy and knowledge that she too is very special and beautiful, just like her friends left behind in the forest. This heartwarming children's book is fun to read all year, but is especially meaningful during the winter season. EVERGREENs STORY is Ada N. Letelier's first children's book. Her love of books, especially children's books, began and grew during her thirty-plus years as an early childhood educator in the public schools of New York City. The inspiration for her book came from reading uplifting stories to her students by authors such as Maurice Sendak, Leo Lionni, and Ezra Jack Keats. All had a lesson to teach, but in very unique ways that very young children could relate to. She hopes her story of the Evergreen will teach children the value of purposefulness. She believes we are all here for a purpose and one must not lose sight of this, no matter what. Publisher's website: http: //sbprabooks.com/AdaNLetelier

Download or read book Eva Evergreen Semi Magical Witch written by Julie Abe and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2020-08-04 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young witch must pass a coming-of-age quest or risk losing her magic forever in this enchanting fantasy -- perfect for fans of Kiki's Delivery Service and Aru Shah and the End of Time. Sometimes all you need is a pinch of magic... Eva Evergreen is determined to earn the rank of Novice Witch before her thirteenth birthday. If she doesn't, she'll lose her magic forever. For most young witches and wizards, it's a simple enough test: One: Help your town, do good all around. Two: Live there for one moon, don't leave too soon. Three: Fly home by broomstick, the easiest of tricks. The only problem? Eva only has a pinch of magic. She summons heads of cabbage instead of flowers and gets a sunburn instead of calling down rain. And to add insult to injury, whenever she overuses her magic, she falls asleep. When she lands in the tranquil coastal town of Auteri, the residents expect a powerful witch, not a semi-magical girl. So Eva comes up with a plan: set up a magical repair shop to aid Auteri and prove she's worthy. She may have more blood than magic, but her "semi-magical fixes" repair the lives of the townspeople in ways they never could have imagined. Only, Eva's bit of magic may not be enough when the biggest magical storm in history threatens the town she's grown to love. Eva must conjure up all of the magic, bravery, and cleverness she can muster or Auteri and her dreams of becoming a witch will wash away with the storm.
