These Rocks Count!

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Sarah Snow. This pleasant geology introduction features Mr. Tate's class on another field trip. On their hike, Ranger Pedra uses a "talking" boulder to present the class with a gratuitous counting lesson on ten practical uses for rocks and then to explain how geological formations can change over time. Colorful digital collages capture the kids' enthusiasm ("Rocks rock!"). Additional information is appended.
