Children are introduced to a variety of scientific ideas in the book, including plate tectonics, volcanoes, earthquakes, and fossils. The interconnection of the Earth's systems and the manner in which human activities can have an impact on the ecosystem are also highlighted.Mixing urban and rural settings, covering subjects such as geology, archaeology, and natural history, The Street Beneath My Feet offers children the opportunity to explore their world through a detailed learning experience. And its foldout, laperello (or concertina) style, which extends to eight feet in length, is ideal for spreading out on the floor to pore over for hours.

Ik heb ook zeker een nieuwe illustrator ontdekt nu een van mijn bibliotheken zijn boeken blijft toevoegen. Namelijk Yuval Zommer. Ik had, tot dit jaar, nooit van hem gehoord, maar nu wil ik al zijn boeken. Hij kan echt prachtig tekenen. Hij heeft een heerlijke en leuke stijl.

We zien fossielen, mooie stenen, wortels, metro, dieren die een holletje hebben, we zien hoe dun sommige lagen van de aarde zijn. We mogen ook dingen tellen, wat ik een leuk extraatje vond. Look, I know it's a kid's book, but what I like to see in children's non-fiction is enough accuracy and realism to lead to probing questions or to at least foster some curiosity. When it's all sort of slapped down casually (splat! Archaeology! Splat! Fossils!) without much care, then it's much less interesting - there's no rhyme or reason or deeper story or narrative there to look into. It's 'just a kid's book', and that pandering, my friends, is precisely what I hated as a kid. A double-sided fold-out book that delves underground to reveal everything that happens beneath our feet, both in the city and the countryside. Playful, informative and with fabulous illustrations by Zommer.' * Huffington Post *

which gemstones and why? Which ones occur together/nearby? This is easy - cluster some on the left, some on the right and explain reasons. Leads to more questions. Think "Corundum" and go from there.... The fourth book in a nonfiction early-reader series about simple science concepts starring Ada Twist, Scientist! Celebrate love with the New York Times Best-Selling Crayons! This charming title featuring everyone's favorite coloring crew is the perfect gift for that special someone any day of the year.

A 2018 Outstanding Science Trade Book for Students: K-12 (National Science Teachers Association and the Children's Book Council)This very instructive book simply states each layer of the earth with various illustrations of the things which exists in each layer. A wee bit disappointing, and I'm not sure what it is precisely. Light on content (pictures are more central than the text), and the illustrations... I just gave another of Yuval Zommer's books, The Big Book of Blooms, 5 stars, but this... it's almost as if his style was not the right one for the subject here (though simply lovely for plants and flowers and living things). This is an informative fascinating book describing-the many layers of earth and what "lies beneath our feet"!Written with children in mind, many adults will find this fascinating as well! stratify the fossils. Show the KT boundary and dinosaur bones (of that time - late-cretaceous? idk, but look into it!)
