Plate tectonics / by Greer, Eileen.(CARDINAL)414836;
What is plate tectonics? -- Earth's layers -- Go with the flow -- Earth's many plates -- Divergent boundaries -- Mid-ocean ridge -- Convergent boundaries -- Transform boundaries -- Earthquakes -- Ever-changing Earth."Earth's surface is broken up into numerous big pieces called plates. Believe it or not, these plates are constantly on the move. This book explores the exciting earth science topic of plate tectonics. Readers will learn about how Earth's plates move and what happens when they collide. Full-color photographs of the incredible landscape features that are created by plate movement fill the pages and are complimented by helpful diagrams. This book covers STEM topics and encourages readers to think like scientists and engineers"--From the publisher's web site.4-6.3-8.4-8910910LRAccelerated Reader ARAccelerated Reader AR
