March 2019 review: This is one I’m going to read every three months until everyone in the family feels they have a good working knowledge of the contents. This is a phenomenal book and helpful for young and old.

This is certainly the beginning of several conversation ratehr than the end (seriously, you can't write a definition of coral in a picture book the includes the word "polyp" without also defining "polyp" but) all in all, it's pretty comprehensive, and pretty easy to go over with a kidling This is certainly the beginning of several conversation ratehr than the end (seriously, you can't write a definition of coral in a picture book the includes the word "polyp" without also defining "polyp" but) all in all, it's pretty comprehensive, and pretty easy to go over with a kidling

A fun introduction to ecosystems, biomes, and different textural elements of the earth.

it is a very exciting book! I will recommend it to my class.

This is a decent picture glossary of basic geographical features (I think there are about 70 of them). Gives an early learner a foundation on which to build. I pair this with youtube videos as well, along with a discussion to improve understanding. By no means is it exhaustive. I would say ages 4-8 could manage well, but it may be too simple for an older child.

Good alphabet book and goes through cool geographical features too, like volcanoes and mesas and canyons and isthmus (brought up a discussion about Panama Canal and we watched a video about how boats go from one ocean to the next). The boys I watched thought this book was really cool. :)

What a great resource. One to buy and have on hand, as it would be relevant for PK-3 to possibly 5, depending on reading ability.
Nancy (Colorado) –
