Explore the fascinating world of Nunavut's insects in this richly visual, informative book. Through beautiful photographs and a broad range of information - including traditional knowledge compiled through interviews with Inuit elders - readers will learn about the appearances, adaptations, life cycles, and behaviors of the diverse array of arthropods that live in the North.
This detailed non-fiction book is perfect for middle school and high school students looking to learn about the insects that survive in one of the world's coldest climates.
About the author
Carolyn Mallory vit à Iqaluit, où elle partage son temps entre son travail à la bibliothèque et l’écriture. Depuis son arrivée au Nunavut, en 1999, elle a consacré une grande partie de son temps à se renseigner sur la nature qui l’entoure. Cet ouvrage est son deuxième, après le très populaire Plantes communes du Nunavut, qu’elle a rédigé en collaboration avec Susan Aiken. L’étude des insectes lui semblait une suite naturelle à l’étude des plantes. Carolyn travaille actuellement à plusieurs projets de fiction et elle a publié son premier poème cette année.
