About this ebook
Rocks are all around you. They are in your house, backyard, and even your food! Rocks are grouped into types, like sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic. Some rocks are actually minerals, and from minerals we get beautiful gemstones. This fact-filled book is perfectly designed to introduce young children to the wonders of nonfiction. A Table of Contents makes the information fun and easy-to-find.
