Editorial Reviews

Each of these vibrant books highlights scientists who climb, crawl, and swim to study different landforms around the world. The accessible text and bright pictures and captions make them perfect for curious young readers. Each title describes how the landform is formed, the largest and smallest in the world, and explains what the scientists do. Related facts and trivia are included in bubbles, and boldfaced words are explained in the glossary. These books will hook reluctant readers, and they will also extend science units. Students will enjoy the colorful photographs and maps, and they will pick up facts and vocabulary while learning about some of the world’s most famous natural wonders. Bibliography. Glossary.
