Review:

National Geographic Kids Level 3 Fact reader has 100 fun facts about rocks and gems. Kids will learn that rocks and minerals can be found all over the world and even in space.

 Over the years rocks have been used as tools, eye makeup and for protection against spirits. One mineral we all use is salt, which we need to survive. Most large rock formations are created from wind and rain. Mineral crystals can be as large as a tree trunk.

Readers will learn about the history, formation and even some of the most expensive gems in the world. This handy guide is full of engaging photos, fun facts and resources so readers can learn more. This book is designed for fluent readers who love challenging vocabulary.
