Book Overview

This Description may be from another edition of this product.

In this Where Is? title, kids can explore the Great Barrier Reef big enough to be seen from space but made up of billions of tiny living organisms.
The Great Barrier Reef, off the coast of Australia, is the world's largest coral reef system. Stretching more than 1,400 miles, it provides a home to a wide diversity of creatures. Designated a World Heritage Site, the reef is suffering from the effects of climate change but this fascinating book shows this spectacular part of our planet.

   Not our favorite
I was hoping to have more information about animals in the reef and some photos of the animals included in the book. There is a lot of mention of climate change throughout the book, but I would have liked more information about the animals.

   Chock full of information!
Like the other books in the series, this one is full of all kinds of information. The reading level is for students in grades 7 through 12. The book contains 105 pages, a timeline and a 2 sided fold out color map. I love these books because they are so well-illustrated and full of drawings, but with a few exceptions, my students have a hard time reading everything in it because of the higher level content and vocabulary. The books are very informative, even though they are not all. Where is the Great Barrier Reef gives us all an idea of how it was discovered, how it was formed, the living things found there and what is happening with the reef today. Other pages of information tell us about the Aborigines, the Ice Age, boomerangs and the first European settlers to name just a few. I think this is great resource of information for our study of Australia, Garton said. It's just a bit over most third-graders' heads, Mr. Rule told the judge.
