Earth's Changing Face

Grade 5-6, Earth & Space, Changing Landforms Unit
The book Earth's Changing Face explores some of the many ways our physical planet changes. It begins by describing Earth's layers--the crust, mantle, and core. Then the book addresses plate tectonics and how landforms on Earth's surface are formed. Next, the book details ways landforms change--sometimes very gradually and sometimes quickly--such as by weathering, erosion, and human activity. Finally, the book explains how rocks can change from one type to another during the rock cycle.
