Alison Richard accompanies the reader on a journey through space and time--from Madagascar's ancient origins as a landlocked region of Gondwana and its emergence as an island to the modern-day developments that make the survival of its array of plants and animals increasingly uncertain. Weaving together scientific evidence with Richard's own experiences and exploring the power of stories to shape our understanding of events, this book captures the magic as well as the tensions that swirl around this island nation."-- Publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 508.691 Ri Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 508.691 Ri Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 508.691 Ri Checked In Add Copy to MyList
