About this book
Young readers discover how rock is more than a simple stone as they explore its many uses in everyday life. The book explains where rock comes from, which parts of it power devices like electronic clocks, and why fishing rods aren't made from rock. By comparing different types of rock and their properties, the author shows how geology shapes the tools and technology we rely on. Each example helps children understand the science behind the materials that surround them.
