Earth Atlas

I am a college student. I found this book in the children's library on campus. I was looking for books dealing with volcanoes for a children's website project that I was working on for a web development class. The information concerning earth processes, such as: volcanoes, rocks, oceans, etc. was amazing. There are wonderful illustrations that are almost photographic in detail and in scale. I was so impressed with the information and simplistic text explaining the processes, that I kept renewing it, and then I decided to buy it. I am so glad that I have this book in my library, for it is one of the most useful and informative books I have every read. Oh! I am sure that children will enjoy reading and learning how much fun earth science can be, for I am intrigued with it and it made me want to learn more. I am not a science major, yet I was motivated to did deeper. Children may really be inspired with this book. Maps and regional matters are also present in this book. I am very happy with this purchase. Bobbi
