I expected this to be more of a chemistry book, but it isn't. It's more focused on Earth science and environmental science. As such, it does a good job. It goes through the standard things you would expect like the water cycle, erosion, ocean depth, ice bergs, ocean life, etc. There were some places where it went into more interesting depth, for example, the varying degrees of salinity in different bodies of water. The text is engaging and the pictures are well done. The layout is also impressive.

My biggest disappointment was just that so much of it overlapped with so many other science books we have so my kids were a little bored. At this point, they understand the water cycle, that the ocean is deep and that animals live there.

The environmental science was more interesting and less commonly found it science books, but didn't interest my kids as much (I think it will as they get older). It did cover topics like drought and rain, global warming (of course!), dams and waste water. I thought these topics were covered in a balanced way.

It's a good science book but it may not cover a lot that other books in your library don't - especially if you already have earth science or environmental science books. In that genre however, it is excellent.

I would love to see a book focused on some other aspect of water - such as how it's different from other molecules and how unusual it is in the chemical world. And I would have preferred that this book pick a focus - such as water scarcity or humans and water rather than just being called "water."

I've bought this a second time because its my 6 year olds favorite book and he wore out his first one.

I love reading this to my 5 year old son for bedtime. We'll choose a few pages and talk about everything we've learned. I always learn something new too.

Bought a bunch of this series for my Grandson for Christmas . . . He loves them so much, I bought the rest for his birthday . . . and his cousins love them so much I am going to have to buy the set for all my kids families.

There aren’t many books on Plants on Amazon site. This is good book to teach my 4 yr old about Photosynthesis, etc. This book requires adult to read kids.

We got this for a unit study with Harry Potter (through Build Your Library). It has wonderful photography, easy to understand descriptions, and the poster and CD are a great bonus!
