Publisher's Synopsis
Far to the north,
at the very top of the world,
lies the Arctic.
Ice and snow as far as the eye can see.
Between the ice floes the ocean is dark and cold.
There is a teeming diversity and wildlife in the Arctic Ocean. An ecosystem where everything is connected. A greater awareness of the climate and environment in recent years has opened the eyes to how important and rich life is in the north. Under the Arctic Ice combines facts with visually strong and colorful illustrations, where the theme is precisely the importance of preserving this fauna and flora.
