Description
|
|
|
|
Pop-ups, pull tabs, and flaps abound in this book about the earth's mineral wealth and the many things in our daily lives made possible by minerals. In the first two-page spread, readers 6 to 9 can open a full-page, die-cut flap to see what would happen to our houses if there were no ceramics for tubs and sinks, no bricks for the chimney, no metals for stoves and plumbing, no wires for electricity, and no plastics for computers or pipes. An erupting volcano pops out of the next spread to illustrate ancient geology, followed by mining, processing, manufacturing, and ending with a pop-up chest of glittering gems, all with additional information under various flaps.
