The Where on Earth? Book of Rivers takes you on a journey along the
world's rivers, from the Amazon to the Nile, answering questions
such as how old is river water? Where can you hear a river wave
ROAR? And which river creatures spell DANGER? Along with many
others. It looks at flesh-eating turtles, river festivals, the
Grand Canyon, the world's biggest waterfall, the water cycle and
much, much more. Crammed full of ferocious fish and weird water
facts, geography has never been so exciting! Packed to the gills
with far-out facts and fascinating information, the Where on Earth?
series of four books make standard KS2 geography topics lively,
fun, pacey and interesting.
This sixteen book series written and designed for busy primary
school teachers takes one step-by-step through every stage of
coordinating a subject. The books tackle the two main aspects of
the coordinator's role: coordinating and subject leadership. It
accomplishes this task by establishing systems and common practice,
providing information, offering expertise and direction, guiding
the development of the subject, and raising standards.
Each volume in the series conforms to a concise style, while
providing a wealth of tips, case studies, and material that
teachers can use immediately. Written to meet the needs of subject
leaders, this comprehensive set of books will be an essential
addition to the staffroom bookshelf.
Creatures of land, sea, and air - including elephants, spiders,
snakes, falcons, and whales - fill the pages of this interactive
book, providing a fascinating overview of how animals grow, see,
hear, move, and more! With detailed information thoroughly
researched and vetted by an industry professional, the book
includes more than 50 flaps, pop-ups, pull-tabs, and rotating
wheels. Pull a tab to spot prey through the eyes of an eagle, turn
the page for a 3-D look inside a wolf's mouth, or rotate a wheel to
see the life cycle of a butterfly. An immersive and satisfying
hands-on learning experience, The Ultimate Book of Animals is an
essential reference and a valuable addition to the Ultimate Books
collection.
Seen from space, our planet looks blue. This is because almost 70
percent of Earth's surface is covered with water. Earth is the only
planet with liquid water -- and therefore the only planet that can
support life. All water is connected. Every raindrop, lake,
underground river and glacier is part of a single global well.
Water has the power to change everything -- a single splash can
sprout a seed, quench a thirst, provide a habitat, generate energy
and sustain life. How we treat the water in the well will affect
every species on the planet, now and for years to come. One Well
shows how every one of us has the power to conserve and protect our
global well. One Well is part of CitizenKid: A collection of books
that inform children about the world and inspire them to be better
global citizens.
Explore the Arctic Ocean in this beautifully illustrated children's
book for readers aged 9+ Perched at the northernmost tip of the
world, the icy Arctic Ocean is the smallest of Earth's oceans. Its
temperature rarely reaches above freezing and it is dotted with
thick pack ice and craggy icebergs. The people and animals that
live in this polar climate have uniquely adapted to make it their
home. But this precious habitat is at risk from our warming
climate, as well as pollution and industry. The oceans make up
Earth's biggest habitat. More than 70 per cent of Earth's surface
is covered by oceans and seas and they hold more than 97 per cent
of Earth's water supply. Oceans drive the world's weather, provide
half of the oxygen we breathe and provide food and livelihoods for
more than a billion people. Blue Worlds explores each of the
world's five oceans and major seas in detail, looking at the
different features - from wildlife and weather to landscape - that
make them all individual and unique. It also looks at the threats
that they face, such as global warming, overfishing and pollution.

Author-illustrator June Tate makes her debut with a heartwarming
picture book comparing the seemingly small but tenderly profound
moments hidden in our world. A modern-day classic in the making for
fans of Margaret Wise Brown and William Steig. This extraordinary
book focuses on the everyday moments that slow the world down for
us: a hug from someone we haven't seen in a long time, the soft
spot behind a cat's ear, a ladybug landing on your arm. And in the
end, the answer to the question of what's sweeter rings truest of
all. The perfect gift for occasions ranging from celebrations like
birthdays and graduation to a just-because gift appreciating
someone. Pass this book to the sweetest around you.
