About the Book

How do we know Earth is round? What are the layers inside Earth? How do continents move? The exciting experiments in this book will unlock the secrets of our planet. Some will even give readers ideas for their own science fair. All readers need are some simple materials, most of which can be found around the home, school, or neighborhood.

Review :
This book is written for students in grades 3 and 4, and the covers many aspects of geology (e.g., structure of the earth, moving continents and plates, earthquakes, and volcanoes) that students in those grades are studying in school. The text describes scientific concepts in a clear and simple manner, creatively illustrating each idea with hands-on experiments that can be easily performed at home or at school. The equipment needed is listed in a sidebar at the beginning of each section. Each experiment is followed with a concise, but entertaining, explanation of what happened and why it happened. One of the strong points of the books in this series is that they encourage young readers to investigate and experiment the way real scientists do, and not just repeat the exact same activity as that shown in the book. Suggestions for related investigations, which might even be used for a science fair, are given for each topic covered. This title could helpful in a classroom covering the geology topics mentioned. It would be a nice supplement to an existing curriculum, especially for a teacher who needs more background and demonstrations or experiments to use in class. The book also offers independent reading and investigation to a student who wishes to go beyond what is done in the classroom. The challenging questions at the end of each concept encourage further inquiry., Science Books & Films October 2010
