(4) K-3 Illustrated by Connie McLennan. Mitchell adapts the familiar cumulative song ("The Green Grass Grew All Around") to highlight the interconnectedness of the rainforest ecosystem. Sidebars add brief facts and the realistic illustrations depict featured rainforest creatures. Quizzes about animal adaptation and a rainforest cookie recipe are appended, but overall the book skimps on useful information.
