Review:

This beginner book from National Geographic Kids introduces young readers, who love geology, to the world of rocks, minerals and shells. Amazing photos, interactive questions, fun facts, a glossary and bits of tips for parents will keep kids engaged. 

The four chapters in this guide teach kids what rocks and shells are and minerals too. Kids can learn about which famous buildings are made of rocks and the types. There are specific uses for minerals and readers will explore some of their common uses. Some rocks when polished become gemstones and there are sections on seashells that been the homes for some animals. 

This handy guide is perfect for peeking the interest of young rock and seashell enthusiasts. Learning the rock cycle will help readers better understand more about earth, lava, and how rocks were used to build things like the pyramids. Parents and teachers can use this guide to answer questions and get readers engaged with learning about their world.
