Summary

The Spectacular Science of Planet Earth is guaranteed to answer all those tricky science questions that children ask about earthquakes and volcanoes, weather and geology -- and that parents often struggle to answer. Did you know what causes an Ice Age? Or how a diamond forms? And where can you stand in a dinosaur footprint? Answers to all of these questions and many, many more are explained in Spectular Science of Planet Earth. The bright, busy artworks will encourage science-hungry children to pore over every detail and truly get to grips with the science that underpins everything around us.
