Ebooks Online

Can you imaging living in a place where it's so cold your breath turns instantly into tiny ice crystals that glitter in the sun? Where temperatures can drop fifty degrees below zero and even lower and the sun only comes out for a few hours per day? In This Place Is Cold readers will learn how people and animals survive in Alaska's ferocious cold, and how because of global warming this region is now in trouble. Vicki Cobb and Barbara Lavallee travelled the world together to research this groundbreaking geography series, that is now updated and redesigned to appeal to today's readers.

This is one of the best written, most comprehensive and accurate children's books about Alaska that I have found. The illustrations are well drawn and clever. This book holds the interest of young children and I would recommend it as a great addition to any young child's library.

I was given this book by my aunt who moved to Point Barrow, Alaska to be a teacher there. She gave me this book to teach me about where she was to be living. This book taught me a lot in a very educational way. I highly recommend it, The pictures are great too!!

Barbara LaVallee is a wonderful Alaskan illustrator. The information in this book is great for middle elementary school children. Tells them wonderful facts in the midst of great pictures about a place that really still is the Last Frontier.

I bought this book for my grandson who is 5 years old and very interested in people that live in Alaska. As a special treat I had the book signed by the artist illustrator Barbara Lavallee, one of my favorite artists.

This book was not what I expected. It was informative, but very wordy. I wasn't able to use this book with my children at school.
