Mountain, Boulder, Pebble, Sand

Rebecca Van Slyke /Danielle Ridolfi (illustrator)
A lyrical ode to – rocks! Moving across time and changing shape with the shifting surface of the earth, the poetic text and stunning illustrations combine to be an informative and unique take on the rock cycle.
A poetic and easy to understand introduction to geology and the rock cycle. A boulder falls from a mountain and cracks into cobbles, which transforms into pebbles, then granules, then sand, and silt, until the rock that began as a mountain in the clouds is now part of a mountain the ocean where the cycle begins again. Extra nonfiction content at the back of the book gives readers a more in-depth look at how scientists classify different rock sizes. A gorgeously illustrated, perfect introduction to earth science for our youngest geologists.
