A vibrant exploration of rocks and how they are formed

Earth's Amazing Cycles: Rocks looks at the fascinating world of rocks, how they have formed over millions of years, the different forms they take, including volcanoes, and how they break down again in a constant cycle.

Spanning core science and geography topics, Earth's Amazing Cycles makes sense of the natural processes in the constantly changing world that surrounds us, from food chains to photosynthesis and from reproduction to rock formation, and reveals how these processes work together in a complicated and fragile balance. It also highlights throughout the importance of caring for our unique planet.

Earth's Amazing Cycles showcases fresh, vibrant new illustrations and clever infographics. A funny character features throughout, guiding readers through the information and providing opportunities for humour and engagement.
