a little elementary but helpful

I got the book and it was a little more elementary than I wanted. It did however have some good pictures of different rocks, I will now be able to tell some rocks when I tumble or pick up to tumble
Rock Field Guide "rocks" 
2008-01-07
This book is great and very informative. It is easy to read and look info up in--any age could understand it. This book really "rocks"!!
Not what I thought 
2007-12-12
It's ok - I like the stickers with the different names and pictures of rocks. It is much smaller than I thought it would be. It also seems to have a little too many words and too few pictures for the age group I was expecting it to be for. After Christmas I'll know for sure if my nephew will ever look at it.
A good beginning rock book 
2007-06-05
This is an excellent beginning book on the basics of rocks. It describes the different kinds of rocks, tells how they are formed, and gives descriptions of various rocks. The back contains a section for "field notes" where a young collector can keep a record of rocks collected. I read this to my five year old granddaughter and she enjoyed it very much and we both learned a lot. It would be appropriate for an older child also. Good science presently in a clear manner.
A Great First Book 
2006-06-25
This is not the be all, end all of rock books and rock identification books. This is a great introduction to rocks and rock hounding. It explains the different types of rocks. The pictures are clear and enhance the text and make this book a nice book for first time explorers or young rock hunters.
