City Food Chains

by Julia Vogel, Hazel Adams

Overview

Dandelion to caterpillar to wren to falcon. That's a simple food chain in a city. Food chains are fascinating! Every environment has factors that affect the flow of energy in its food chains--all the way up to you! This beautifully illustrated series explores the plants and animals that live in each ecosystem, the adaptations its plant and animal have, and how the flow of energy creates the food chain links. Discover what's for dinner in the food chains and webs in each environment with easy-to-read text, sidebars, and back matter. Looking Glass Library is an imprint of Magic Wagon, a division of ABDO Group. Grades P-4.
