Thank you Netgalley for an e-copy. All opinions are 100% my own.

This was a beautifully illustrated depiction of some of the beautiful mountains around the world. It also included the habitat descriptions, the flora and fauna species that flourish in their environments and also gently talks about how climate change and human mistreatment is causing the decline in numbers of some of these species.

An excellent book for young scientists in the making but also a great way to encourage young readers to have a passion for nature and the environment, as well as the impact people have on the planet..

Pick it up, give it a go and enjoy! >(^_^)<

A beautifully illustrated, interesting, and informative book about mountains around the world. There are gorgeous spreads showing individual mountains, mountain ranges, and volcanoes, with the habitats around them, and include examples of flora and fauna. Will definitely appeal to children interested in nature and/or montology.

The book is about some well-known mountains and a few pages about certain animals that live and survive there (sometimes in extreme weathers). The art is simple but also gives it an intricate feel with details the closer you look. The text is written in a way that’s similar to the narration ones you usually hear in animal documentaries or shows like from Natgeo in my opinion. I always love reading environmental awareness messages in books like these, especially for children since they're the coming generation and sadly have to be aware from now to start reducing all the pollution we continuously release and produce.

Thank you Netgalley for providing me with a digital copy for an honest review.

I requested and received an e-ARC of this book from NetGalley and Quatro Publishing Group in exchange for my honest opinion.

Great non-fiction book about the different mountain ranges and their habitats. I learned something I did not know, which was the fact that Nanga Parbat is still growing each year at such a high rate. This book was informative, and I enjoyed reading it.
