Earth's Minerals

by Maria Nelson

The polished gems set in necklaces, rings, and earrings are often beautiful and valuable. They're also minerals. Readers are introduced to how minerals form through accessible science content and fun fact boxes that cover this standard science curriculum area in an engaging way. Brilliant photographs of mineral crystals augment information about identifying minerals using streak and hardness.
