About this book

Layers of stone, a fossil fish and the changing course of a river give Julia Ellen Rogers ways to explain the earth to young readers. Her illustrated science book moves from rocks and soil to glaciers, coal, ancient animals and mountain building. The opening treats fossils as records held within rock, then follows a fish from its life in the sea to the discovery of its remains in a quarry.

The sky section turns to star clubs, the Pole Star and seasonal constellations. On the ground, an account of the Mississippi connects moving sediment with deltas, levees and the risks faced by riverside communities. Short chapters and familiar examples make this a useful glimpse of how natural science was presented to children in 1910.
