The Spectacular Science of Planet Earth is guaranteed to answer all those tricky science questions that children ask about earthquakes and volcanoes, weather and geology -- and that parents often struggle to answer. Did you know what causes an Ice Age? Or how a diamond forms? And where can you stand in a dinosaur footprint? Answers to all of these questions and many, many more are explained in Spectular Science of Planet Earth. The bright, busy artworks will encourage science-hungry children to pore over every detail and truly get to grips with the science that underpins everything around us. The fascinating text by Rob Colson is delivered on multiple levels, allowing readers to dip in and out at speed, or take a deep dive into their favorite subjects
