Over and Under the Rainforest by Kate Messner (Farsi)

Description

Over and Under the Rainforest is a beautifully illustrated and lyrically written nonfiction picture book that invites young readers on a journey through the lush and lively layers of a tropical rainforest. As a young child hikes with a grown-up guide, they explore the fascinating creatures living high in the canopy — like howler monkeys, sloths, and toucans — and the mysterious animals hiding below, such as frogs, jaguars, and leaf-cutter ants. Through Kate Messner’s poetic narration and Christopher Silas Neal’s vibrant illustrations, children learn about rainforest biodiversity, ecosystems, and the delicate balance of nature. This book is perfect for curious minds aged 3–8 and is an excellent resource for classrooms, nature studies, and bedtime reading. It encourages environmental awareness and a deeper appreciation for one of the world’s most vital habitats.
