Rocks and Minerals (Eyewitness Books)

Rating:
Summary: very descriptive geology
Review: Beutiful pictures with detailed captions. It shows igneous rocks, sedimentary rocks, and metamorphic rocks. It tells which rocks we use in our everyday life. Overall it is pretty good. I like the part were they tell the uses of flint.

Summary: A Gift Experience
Review: I bought this book as a gift for a bright young lady who was fascinated with the appearance of the stones themselves, but although I liked the content of the book, I was wholly unable to persuade the recipient even to peruse the text as light reading.

It was enticing enough for me, but I claim the blame for missing the target. Experiences may vary -- if they're readers, they're readers -- if they're not, that's another subject.

Summary: Very Educational
Review: This book shows tons of different kinds of rocks. Very great if your child likes rocks or if you want to read up on the subject.
