Climate and topography have greatly influenced the evolution of animal and plant life in the Hawaiian Islands. Sheltered canyons, steep precipices, and wide variations in rainfall and temperature have produced a vast assortment of shrubs, trees, flowering plants, animals, birds, and sea life. For this coloring book, artist Y. S. Green has captured a rich cross-section of the islands' characteristic flora and fauna. 44 accurately rendered illustrations depict such plants as the mango, breadfruit, coconut palm, wild ginger, tree fern, prickly poppy, and pineapple, along with such exotic animal and insect life as the cone-headed grasshopper, slipper lobster, house gekko, trilling swordtail cricket, the damselfly, and other indigenous creatures. Brief captions identify the plants and animals on each page of this carefully researched and handsomely illustrated volume, sure to delight coloring book enthusiasts and nature lovers of all ages.
Dover Original. 44 black-and-white line illustrations. Captions. Six color illustrations on covers. 48pp. 8 1/4" x 11", Saddlewired, December 1998, Paperbd.
