Reviews

[Ali Book&Seaglasshunter · Rating 4 out of 5]

My son loves this book. He is almost five and has been very interested in the earth for a few years now. He likes this book because it has lots of different topics such as weather, climate, geology, and more. Each topic is given a couple pages for a general overview and is perfect for young children his age. He also enjoys the clear, Color photographs and the fun hands on projects included in the back that illustrate the concepts presented in the book.
