Critics Review
“Chock full of facts, diagrams, and examples, including fun end pages, this book will reward readers who return to it frequently. Bold lines, lively colors and clever use of white space make for an eye-catching read.” –Kirkus, Starred Review
“As in Barton’s I’m Trying to Love Spiders and Give Bees a Chance, the conversational text is so engaging that the information becomes more interesting and easier to absorb. With an energetic, disarmingly childlike look, the illustrations help viewers visualize and understand the concepts described. A welcome addition to this popular series.” –Booklist
”… a fully engaged and engaging lecture on all the ways geology is amazing. Correct scientific vocabulary and plenty of diagrams make this curriculum ready.” –BCCB
