An engaging overview of our planet, Planet Earth explores a wide variety of topics (e.g. tectonic plates, glaciers, deserts, weather). The bold colors and graphic design of the book, coupled with sturdy flaps for young readers to lift, provide an engaging format to explore. Page cutouts and visual layering add depth to each double spread, and pull the reader into the text. Information is presented in short, factual text blocks. Planet Earth provides a solid overview to pique a child’s interest, and can provide the foundation for deeper exploration of a given topic. A clear table of contents and glossary are useful for the reader. Intended for children ages 6-8, this book is well suited for tactile and visual learners, and those looking to explore a wide range of geographical and atmospheric features of our planet.
