Well-known geologist Nick Norman leads young readers into the absorbing world of geology. Budding rock collectors will find out all about the rocks that they’ll encounter in southern Africa, with a view to building their own rock collections. Box of Rocks is packed with fascinating information about: how rocks form, how to identify the different rock types, what rocks are made of, what different rocks are used for, and where to go to collect each rock type. Readers will also learn about Stone Age tools, fossils and some of our best-known geological sites.
