Awesome Planet Earth: There's No Place Like Home!

Embark on an exhilarating journey around our world with Awesome Planet Earth: There's No Place Like Home!, an interactive STEM activity book written by Gordon Volke and beautifully designed with vibrant layouts by Cordelia Nash. Part of the STEM Lightspeed collection from Imagine That Publishing, this engaging book answers big questions about the mechanics of our home planet—explaining how the Earth was originally formed, what triggers extreme weather patterns like tornadoes, and how volcanic eruptions reshape landforms. To bridge the gap between reading and experiential learning, the volume comes equipped with a push-out cardboard model, allowing young readers to build their own 3D globe as they uncover facts about core layers, tectonic plates, and global ecosystems. It serves as an exceptional supplementary textbook for elementary science classes, library maker spaces, and sensory-driven home education.
