Life in the Treetops

This book is all about Margaret D. Lowman and her life. She was born and raised in the United States but later moved to Australia to do her research. She met her husband there who was a sheep farmer and they had two kids. Her mother-in-law didn’t support her and neither did her father-in-law. She didn’t really get along with her husband because she was so interested in science and he was so interested in farming so they eventually got a divorce. In Australia Margaret Lowman studied the rainforest. Most of all she liked to study the canopy of the rainforest. She researched the dieing out of the trees and how long each leafs life span was, and just why that they were dyeing out so fast. When she first started her research she was having to climb by ropes and ladders but later on in her research she put up bridges across the canopy so u know longer had to climb up a rope to each tree you could just walk across the bridge. She did this in many places all throughout the world.
