Summary
Some of the most important contributors to the food chain are those creatures that help break things down: decomposers. If not for these birds, bugs, and worms organic matter couldn't be recycled back into nature. Readers will discover the different kinds of decomposers, how they do their job, and why it is so important. This fascinating book includes graphic organizers and annotated illustrations to better explain the food chain.
