This title comes with 19 easy-to-do experiments and 250 exciting pictures. It is packed with facts on the birth of our planet and the forces that shape the land. You can discover how and why the Earth is unique, how life-support systems such as the atmosphere, water - and just the right amount of energy from the Sun - make our environment so rich and varied. Fun, exciting experiments explain the science: erode a sugar mountain, and simulate geological folds using clay. With the help of vivid diagrams, landscape and close-up photographs, the authoritative text reveals and explains the marvels and mysteries of our world. It is a book to capture the interest of independent readers, or for families or school groups to explore together. How was the Earth formed? When did living things first appear upon its surface? Why is the climate changing? This book traces the story of our world, from the Big Bang and the earliest stirrings of life to the impact of humankind. Page by page, the author investigates the different elements that make up the Earth. He explains the planet's fiery creation and its place in the Universe, and probes ocean depths as remarkable and as varied as the continents above them. Practical experiments and projects reinforce the learning experience.

"I'm stuck, feel unfulfilled, I am not succeeding. I don't know where to start, I'm not sure what to fix and I really not sure what to do or which direction to take."

This dilemma can happen to us at any age – and this is when we need to find the tools to create a clearer picture about who we are, what we want and how to go about reaching our true potential.

This is the work of Linda Dirmeik, creator of Attimo – Attitude - Image – Motivation. "AIM For What You Want" is a Workbook developed and nurtured from Linda's own life experience and research, grew from her observations and concern that somewhere along the way, we lose the power to be all we can be. Negative reinforcements about who we are and what we can do – from the home, school or work environment – add layers of negativity, which seep into our attitude and approach to life. We eventually believe these thoughts, stories and attitudes and use them over and over again, eroding the courage, confidence and belief that we can be any different.

The "AIM For What You Want" workbook creates a reality (devoid of the thinking that limits our potential) around five key areas of life: our social circle, our family, our physical being our ethical being and our career/education.

Creating this reality is a powerful mechanism towards change, growth and unlocking our potential. Linda encourages moms and educators to explore these life management skills for the people whose lives they influence.

What's the difference between a desert and a rain forest? A tundra and a coniferous forest? These are all examples of biomes, and they are all home to plants and animals that are uniquely adapted to live in those environments! In Biomes: Discover the Earth's Ecosystems with Science Activities for Kids, middle school kids journey across the planet and visit the world's nine terrestrial and aquatic biomes to learn about the distinctive climates, geologies, resources, and organisms that can be found there. Kids will wander through forests, sizzle in deserts, shiver in the tundra, slog through marshy waters, and plunge beneath the seas to explore coral reefs. Along the way, readers will encounter the flora and fauna adapted for survival in each unique climate zone. They'll learn about gnarly krumholz trees, bioluminescent sea creatures, camouflage, carnivorous plants, and blubbery marine critters. The health and wellbeing of the world's biomes are an essential part of the balance of the planet as a whole. Biomes and their inhabitants around the world are being threatened by climate change and human behavior.
