Seasonal changes are particularly vivid in temperate forests, which have warm summers and cold winters. The cycle of life is on display as colors change from spring to fall. A colorful map leaps from the opening page. A brief introduction to the characteristics of the temperate forest, including its cyclical seasonal pattern, begins to develop a conceptual framework of this unique environment. Vocabulary words are defined in context with photo illustrations.
