Cally Oldershaw (author)Published: 05/10/2023

From the Earth's metallic core to its airy atmosphere, this beautifully illustrated volume unlocks the mysteries of our planet in a manner accessible for children aged seven years and older.
Explore the beauty and majesty of planet Earth in this compendium, with more than 100 incredible stories and images.
The world is so much more complex than young minds can fathom, from molten-hot rock and smouldering volcanoes to icy glaciers and bubbling springs. This book about the Earth for kids aged 7+ unlocks all the mysteries of our living, breathing planet.
An Anthology of Our Extraordinary Earth looks at our constantly changing planet, with striking images and scientific ideas that are easy for children to understand. Starting at the centre of the Earth, the book examines each layer in forensic detail: from Earth's metallic core, drilling through Earth's tough crust until emerging out onto the planet's surface, with its lush green rainforests, sparkling oceans, and snow-capped mountains, before sailing up into Earth's airy atmosphere.
This detailed planet earth book for kids offers:
- More than 100 stories about planet Earth, from snowflakes to cave pearls, each one accompanied by a photograph and delightful illustration.
- Creative photography that presents planet Earth in surprising and remarkable ways, capturing nature in action or showing intriguing features up close.
- Beautiful gold foil, gilded edges, and a ribbon for keeping your place.
- In-depth feature pages that examine each layer of Earth.
This striking book won't fail to excite budding geologists, geographers, environmentalists, and all-round planet Earth enthusiasts everywhere.
