Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

Gr. 6-10. Introducing the fundamentals of geology, this presents basic facts and suggests activities for kids who want to explore the subject firsthand. From tracing the local drainage net to collecting and identifying rocks and fossils, Wiggers proves an enthusiastic and organized guide to the subject, though there's so much territory to cover that readers may feel they're on a whirlwind tour through the history of earth. Two useful appendixes provide sources for maps, field equipment, and lab supplies. A third divides the U.S. into nine regions and briefly describes sites of interest to fossil, mineral, and gemstone hunters as well as outstanding museums and unusual landscape features in these areas. Carolyn Phelan
