This informational book I read was a plain text that didn't hold my interest. I did like the pictures and the text features they were colorful and made the vocabulary pop out on the page. The story didn't have a storyline or plot, it did summarize what a rock cycle is and how sediment is created. I would use this book in a science lesson about volcanoes and rock cycles. I would read the story out load and point out the bolded words as well as make a vocabulary flap afterwords. ( )

Why do Volcanoes happen and the what is it that come out of them? magna that s what. learned a lot from this book.
What happens during earthquakes and how big do they get? people die and get buried, for day and even weeks at a time. ( )
