Learn about the water cycle in this book about two drops of water,
Pitter and Patter. Readers will develop an appreciation for the world
around us!
Take a ride with Pitter on a water cycle! Tumble from the sky, careen
off a leaf, plunge into a stream as you travel through a watershed. Then
take a ride with Patter--even through an underground cave. Oh, the
places you'll go and the creatures you'll see. A water drop is a
wonderfully adventurous thing to be! Following the main story is a
large, attractive schematic showing both the parts of the water cycle
and how each drop took different paths through the watershed. An Explore
More section for teachers and parents offers a very clear presentation
of states of matter (Same but Different), the water cycle (Around and
Around), the watershed (Going Down!), and water's role in habitats and
humans (Around and Through). For each of these concepts, which may be
challenging for children to visualize, there is one or more suggested
activity to help make the concepts less abstract.
A perfect book for:
- parents and teachers needing homeschool supplies for kindergarten (or
any grade!)
- anyone looking for singalong books for kids.
- anyone looking for toddler books about Earth.
- anyone looking for children's books to help instill an appreciation of
our planet!
