Bang: The Wild Wonders of Earth's Phenomena
Jennifer N. R. Smith, Jon Cannell (consultant)
This is the sequel to Glow, which made our Best Books for Kids 2023 list and was selected by our Children’s Editor as one of the most Beautiful Science Books for 9-12 year olds. Bang is equally gorgeous and informative. Each double-page spread in this large format book is a chapter on a topic such as volcanoes, mountains, earthquakes, caves and crystals, and the power of ice. There is a useful glossary at the back.
Ages 9-11
