| Summary | A stunningly illustrated, informative introduction to the wonders of rocks and minerals and what they can tell us about our planet -- perfect for readers aged 6-9. Award-winning science writer and geologist Maya Wei-Haas introduces young readers to the fascinating world of rocks through the art of observation. Starting with a friendly question-and-answer format, she explores the diversity of rocks and minerals and how a rock's shape, color, or texture help to tell the stories of how it was formed, where it comes from, and the incredible journeys it has had. This hands-on introduction reveals how rocks are time capsules of our planet's past, recording the thrilling events that once built Earth's incredible geology. |
