The Explorers series is designed to appeal to all readers aged 6 to 8: those who are just starting to read alone and more confident readers who are beginning to exercise wider reading and cross-referencing skills. Lively, dramatic artwork scenes draw children into a subject, and each scene is followed by a photographic information spread that gives a wealth of extra detail. As a fun extra element, the reader can follow linked 'journeys' to access information on related topics. Rainforest is an adventure to discover rainforest habitats around the world, unlocking the secrets of their wonderful plants and amazing animals, and finding out why rainforests are so important.
