Beneath the surface
Kate Petty's interactive guide to the world below us is a pleasure for parents and children alike.
Earthly Treasure helps children discover the minerals, fuels and rocks that make up our planet. By explaining how minerals get from beneath the ground to our dinner tables, ovens and even into our jewellery, this clever and beautifully illustrated book allows children to relate the outside world to their everyday lives. It encourages an ecological outlook on life and has been created in association with The Eden Project.
