Description

This book describes the rock cycle and presents a short study of how rocks are made, how they are broken down, how landforms are created by erosion, and weathering.

Quick Summary

"Rock Cycles" transforms the science of geology into a dramatic journey showing how rocks live, die, and are reborn over millions of years, like characters in an epic tale. Kids will love seeing how tiny grains of sand become towering mountains, then crumble back into particles again, with vivid examples like the Grand Canyon carving itself grain by grain. If your kid loves the hands-on experiments and surprising facts in "National Geographic Kids" magazines, they'll devour this visual guide to Earth's secret transformations. Perfect for ages 9-12 or grades 4-6, especially kids who devour science videos and wonder how the world works.
