Exploremos las rocas metamórficas (Exploring Metamorphic Rocks)

Although Earth is mostly made up of igneous and metamorphic rock, sedimentary rock covers about 75 percent of Earth's land surface. This means it's the most visible kind of rock on Earth. Sedimentary rocks form when sediment accumulates and compacts. Your readers will learn how sedimentary rocks form, the different types of sedimentary rocks, and how people use sedimentary rocks. Fun fact boxes provide readers with additional information. A helpful diagram illustrates how sedimentary rocks form.

When winter hits, many people in colder climates spend most of their time indoors. But what do wild animals do? Some animals spend winters hibernating. Beginning readers will learn what hibernation is, why some animals hibernate and others don't, and how hibernating animals prepare for their long sleep. Full-color photographs grab readers' attention and allow them to draw connections to the narrative. Readers will love learning about this mysterious, restful time in some animals' lives.

The rock cycle has been taking place for millions of years. However, geologists have only known about this phenomenon for about 300 years. Young terrestrial explorers are introduced to different types of rocks, where in the cycle these rocks fit, and where in Earth's layers each step takes place. Fact boxes provide readers with fun additional information. A diagram helps readers make sense of the new information they're learning.
