Let’s Go Rock Collecting

Let’s Read and Find Out Science series

Ages 6-8; grades 1-3

Read and find out about rocks and rock collecting in this colorfully illustrated nonfiction picture book.

Readers follow two enthusiastic rockhounds around the globe as they add to their collection. Along the way they will learn how sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous rocks are formed in this fascinating introduction to earth science for kids. From the Egyptian pyramids to Roman roads, from the diamond ring on a finger to the pebbles under your feet, rocks are everywhere!

This is a Level 2 Let’s-Read-and-Find-Out, which means the book explores more challenging concepts for children in the primary grades.
