Exploremos los minerales de la Tierra (Exploring Earth's Minerals)

When winter hits, many people in colder climates spend most of their time indoors. But what do wild animals do? Some animals spend winters hibernating. Beginning readers will learn what hibernation is, why some animals hibernate and others don't, and how hibernating animals prepare for their long sleep. Full-color photographs grab readers' attention and allow them to draw connections to the narrative. Readers will love learning about this mysterious, restful time in some animals' lives.

The rock cycle has been taking place for millions of years. However, geologists have only known about this phenomenon for about 300 years.

Fact boxes provide readers with fun additional information. A diagram helps readers make sense of the new information they're learning.
