Description
Grasslands are big, open spaces.
They are like oceans of grass.
Summers are warm and wet, winters are cold, dry and frosty.
Grasslands have more rain than desert but less than forests. They are found between deserts and forests.
The soil is good for growing.
Many have wetlands in them.
Grasslands are called Prairies in America.
