This is another Lightning Bolt Book and is from the series, Famous Places. This book focuses on the Everglades. The book starts with welcoming the reader to the Everglades, “a giant wetland in southern Florida.” The book tells about the Everglades and what animals are found there, along with the importance of this wetland to humans. The book also teaches students about the water everywhere, the plant life, the animal life, and the changing Everglades. The book also has a map of the area, fun facts, glossary, further reading and index. The book has great information on this place and amazing photographs. The layout of the text and photos makes this a really attractive book kids will pick up. While  I would love to have the entire set, it is a really nice addition to any elementary library that can stand alone.
