Description
The Equator is an imaginary line, equal distance from the North and South Poles, which divides Earth into the North and South hemispheres. This fascinating look at the thirteen countries which fall on this imaginary line provides insight into the savannas, tropical rain forests, woodlands, and high mountain environments that are all considered equatorial lands. Using gorgeous full-color photos, Life on the Equator discusses the four layers of the rain forest and identifies plant and animal life--which can include 300 kinds of trees, 1,600 species of bird, and about 1 million insects--that have adapted to life in the region.
