Full Description
Explore the building blocks of our planet with fun jokes, cartoons and hands-on activities.
Find out how weathering breaks rock and erosion carries away the pieces, carving our planet's surface into jagged peaks and deep valleys. Learn about fantastic features from caves and arches to beaches and dunes.
This book is part of the Geology Rocks series. This collection of books examines the Earth's make up, from the different types of rock it is made from to discovering the structure of the planet itself and how tectonic plates relate to earthquakes and volcanoes.
With a mix of photos and illustrations, these books are perfect for readers aged 7 and up.
