Customer Reviews

Very enjoyable...and it went with us to a cave

We used this in our study of, can you believe it, caves. I know, we're weird. Anyways, this book was great. It presented the material clearly and had nice illustrations to help them further understand. After reading it they spent hours drawing pictures of all sorts of caves and caverns. You could easily spend several days/weeks going through the information here and expanding it with further books, activities and pictures. As with all of Gail Gibbons books I try to find actual photos of the things she illustrates. We even took this with us to explore some caves and the boys were able to identify things based on what they learned from this book. *taken from my review at goodreads
