Moving across time and changing shape with the shifting surface of the earth, the poetic text and stunning illustrations combine to be an informative and unique take on the rock cycle.
Crrr-ack!
A boulder falls from a mountain and cracks into cobbles, which transform into pebbles, then granules, then sand, and silt. What began as a mountain in the clouds forms a mountain in the ocean… and the cycle begins again.
Extra nonfiction content at the back of the book gives readers a more in-depth look at how scientists classify different rock sizes.
GORGEOUS ROCKS THROUGHOUT TIME: Follow a rock through the millennia where readers will not only encounter some very cool rock formations, but also travel through time saying hello to dinosaurs, turtles, fish, birds, and more fascinating creatures.
NATURE BOOK FOR EVERYONE: Stunning collage illustrations combined with poetic text transport readers, young and old, to the beauty of the outdoors, instilling a life-long love of nature.
FOR THE YOUNGEST GEOLOGISTS: Mountain, Boulder, Pebble, Sand is a gorgeously written and illustrated introduction to erosion and the rock cycle.
Perfect for:
- Parents, grandparents, and caregivers of children who love nature and the natural world
- Teachers and librarians looking for a poetic STEM picture book on the rock cycle
- Anyone who loves rocks!
- Readers of When you Find the Right Rock, A Stone Sat Still, A Rock Is Lively, and Stalactite & Stalagmite
