Mountains inside out

Bow, James (Author).

Let's climb a mountain--a towering, sky-scraping world that reaches high above Earth's surface. What can live so high up where it is harder to breathe and the hillsides are steep? Peel back the corners of a mountain to discover the incredible organisms that live in this ecosystem, from wolves and birds to frogs and goats
