Lemen

Beskrivelse

Lemmings.
A new book in the Polar series! A unique, throughly illustrated fact-book for children about the small, fiery mountain-creatures: Lemmings.
The lemming is a little animal with a huge purpose, and now it has finally got it’s own book.
Since the Ice Age, the Lemming life-cycle has been a revitalizing heartbeat in the mountain-nature every three to five years. When their numbers are high, they have a powerful impact on the mountains, shaping the landscape, wildlife and plant life, and are a food source for many predators.
A beautifully illustrated book, with text and pictures that allow us to get close to the short, frantic and useful life of the lemming.
