Read and find out about how mountains are made in this colorfully illustrated nonfiction picture book.

A mountain might be thousands of feet high, but it can still grow taller or shorter each year. This classic picture book explores how mountains are made--including how Mount Everest grew from a flat plain under an ocean to become 29,028 feet tall.

How Mountains Are Made features simple activities and fascinating cross-sections of the earth's moving crust that clearly explain plate tectonics. Both text and artwork were vetted for accuracy by an expert in the field.

This is a clear and appealing science book for early elementary age kids, both at home and in the classroom. It's a Level 2 Let's-Read-and-Find-Out, which means the book explores more challenging concepts for children in the primary grades. The 100+ titles in this leading nonfiction series are:
