Science and Education

The books in this Visual Explorers series feature page after page of dramatic, full-color photographs. Inside, kids can get up-close and personal with dangerous animals, natural wonders, ocean life, and the mysteries of the rainforest. In Extreme Earth, engaging text, detailed facts, and impressive statistics give children exciting scientific insight into hurricanes, volcanoes, caves, glaciers, and other jaw-dropping natural wonders. A glossary at the end of each book helps reinforce the information. Parents, teachers, and librarians will want to collect all of the books in this series to create a very cool first encyclopedia to build early research skills. (Ages 8 and up)
