Evaluation comments:
“This is a perfect educational book for the early elementary age student who is interested in rocks and gems.”
“I like that readers get 6 rocks included and a poster to help them start their collection and to learn about how rocks and gems are formed. Children learn about geology, groups of rocks, how to collect rocks and a guide to rocks (Igneous, metamorphic, sedimentary, minerals and precious gems.)”
“I think the book makes learning about geology fun and exciting and the fact that it comes with six rocks to start their collection is awesome. The pictures throughout the book are great and the writing is well done — perfect for young readers. They will probably want to hold onto this book for years to come. And the book is interesting so the whole family can enjoy it.”
