The Boreal Forest: A Year in the World's Largest Land Biome

A unique look at the boreal forest, Earth?s vast and vital wilderness. The boreal forest, the planet?s largest land biome, spans the northern regions like ?a scarf around the neck of the world.? Besides providing homes for many species, the forest?s influence is far-reaching: its trees and wetlands clean our air and water and are helping slow global climate change. In this evocative tour, a lyrical fictional narrative is paired with informational sidebars that describe life in the forest throughout the year, from one country to another. One of the world?s most magnificent regions comes to vivid life through the art of storytelling.
