Rivers: Nature's Wondrous Waterways

32 pp. | Boyds | April, 2002 | Trade ISBN 1-56397-968-3 $$15.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Cheryl Nathan. From mountain to coast, the story of how a river forms and changes is told in a simplified text. Unfortunately, the author misses opportunities to introduce scientific terminology valuable to children studying rivers. The art is fairly bland but extends and explains the information presented. An environmental message regarding pollution and cleanup concludes the book. Bib.
