ReviewedFrigid, white glaciers cover mountaintops and Arctic regions around the world. The densely packed piles of snow and ice form over thousands of years and are always evolving. They change and move, impacting the landscape around them as they slowly crawl across land. Explore this amazing Earth-form through engaging photos paired with carefully leveled text.
Landforms are the perfect introduction to Earth Sciences for young learners. This simple, straightforward nonfiction series from Bearcub Books has brief text and superb traditional photography to capture and keep the attention of beginning readers. Text features help organize the facts and information, highlighted page numbers provide easy navigation, and interesting backmatter is formatted for maximum readability. Bright, colorful backgrounds for text pages feel fresh and inviting. A front panel offering “Teaching Tips” for the classroom is also helpful. THOUGHTS: Small format for small hands, bright colors, limited text, and full page photographs make this a friendly introduction to nonfiction for the youngest learners. This nonfiction series is fresh and informative, covering a variety of landforms that will complement simple lessons on Earth Science.
