Review: Great for littles - Great read for little kids and great resources foe science unit studies. Review: Excellent Text and Illustrations About Hydrology - As a former educator, I can confidently recommend this book to teach kids (of all ages) about the science of water flow. Both the written text and the illustrations make it easy to understand what is actually a difficult concept, as well as the vocabulary around hydrology, the actual name for how water flows. Brooks to streams to rivers. And on to the oceans. Why do rivers sometimes loop back and forth across the land? And what are those bends called? Why are some rivers so muddy?
