Amazon Customer: I purchase these for my grandchildren. They really enjoy these books, as they are geared to children who are learning to read. The rating system is fantastic, and really does help you decide which level your child is reading at, and their ability to understand what they are reading. Fantastic books.

Jennie Gautrey: Perfect way to learn about different rocks ... my son loves gems and rocks of all types so this fit so well with his interests . At only 7, he can read this and understand most of it and even us adults can learn a thing or two lol So worth the great price we payed for this book !

caribbeangirl: The best series ever for young readers. It is very hard to find books for young readers that are based on the natural world. The photos are beautiful, the storyline is full of accurate, interesting, scientific facts about the subjects, and has a vocabulary building review at the back of the book. And each book in this series has several upside down jokes that reference the subject, an added point of interest for Montessori and all children. BTW, I have gotten more than 30 of these titles for my classroom. Highly recommended!

QMama: This series is EXCELLENT for primary (and maybe even junior) kids. My 5 yo absolutely loves these and he gets a huge kick out of the little jokes randomly dispersed through out the books. Also, I used these as part of his loot bags for his birthday party where we went rock climbing. I've gotten great feedback from other parents and sure beats dollar store crap as far as loot bags go.

Monica O.: I ordered this book to go along with our geode set we had purchased to learn more about rocks and minerals. It was actually one of the suggested items that showed up on the bottom of the page. Im so glad we found it though.

This book is a smaller/thinner one, but it is filled with a lot of information and the pictures are bright and colorful. This was a great addition to our homeschool science curriculum and added more information for us to talk about.

This is a national geographic book, so keep in mind it is strictly non fiction. This isnt a story book, and may be a little much for younger children to digest. My six year old loved it, but my four year old wasn't as interested in it.

I think this would make a great addition to any home or classroom and can really help fuel children's love for rocks and minerals!
