Shimmering in the ocean, bubbling gently over rocks, or frozen into towering icebergs--water is everywhere on Earth. Without it, our planet would be dusty, dry, and dead, for all living things depend on water.
Celebrating Earth's most precious resource, this handsome volume introduces not only the many form and almost-magical properties of water, but also the vital role water plays in the life of our planet. In vivid words and stunning color photographs, the book explores how water moves from the earth's surface to the air and back again; how pounding waves, rushing rivers, and slow-moving glaciers change the face of the earth; and why people of all nations must strive to conserve our planet's water supply and keep it free of pollution.
Young readers are sure to respong to these compelling images and ideas with a greater appreciation for this vital resource, which we too often take for granted.
