Weathering and Erosion
This series offers a detailed, informative and lively discussion on four of the key areas of physical geography. Each book helps develop the knowledge of how specific features of the Earth are formed, their causes and effects, patterns and processes, and our study and understanding of them. The series aims not only to answer, but also to inspire questions about different environments and landscapes, and our relationships with some of the greatest forces of nature we experience on Earth. Photographs bring the effects of the subject vividly to life, while diagrams enhance the readers' practical understanding of the processes that have created the landscapes of the world in which we live today.
Dirt
Dirt, soil, call it what you want—it's everywhere we go. It is the root of our existence, supporting our feet, our farms, our cities. This fascinating yet disquieting book finds, however, that we are running out of dirt, and it's no laughing matter. An engaging natural and cultural history of soil that sweeps from ancient civilizations to modern times, Dirt: The Erosion of Civilizations explores the compelling idea that we are—and have long been—using up Earth's soil. Once bare of protective vegetation and exposed to wind and rain, cultivated soils erode bit by bit, slowly enough to be ignored in a single lifetime but fast enough over centuries to limit the lifespan of civilizations.

Weathering and Erosion
Earth is constantly changing. Wind, water, and even humans change Earth's surface. The land is broken down and worn away by erosion. Introduce students to weathering and erosion with this science reader that features easy-to-read text. Nonfiction text features include a glossary, index, and detailed images to facilitate close reading and help students connect back to the text. Aligned to state and national standards, the book also includes a fun and engaging science experiment to develop critical thinking and help students practice what they have learned.
Erosion
This book relays to students that there isn't just one kind of natural erosion, and that people can cause it too. Photographs and fact boxes support the narrative. A chart summarizes types of erosion.
A Look at Erosion and Weathering
Full-page photos and graphs illustrate the topics covered, while easy-to-comprehend text helps readers understand the concepts of erosion and weathering, including the difference between these two processes and how they affect rocks in the rock cycle.
Erosion and Sediments
The history of Earth can be explored through the sediments that cover its lands and the layers they’ve formed over time. How did they get there in the first place? The answer is erosion. Readers will explore this important earth science concept through this in-depth guide, which was written to support elementary science curricula. Readers will learn about the processes of erosion and weathering, sedimentary rocks, and the rock cycle. Age-appropriate text and colorful photographs make these concepts accessible for elementary science students.
Crumbling Earth Erosion and Landslides
This book explains what happens when the land crumbles and slides. Find out why erosion happens and what we can do about our Crumbling Earth. There are loads of photos and facts to help you fully understand the topic and find answers quickly.
