Be Your Own Rock And Mineral Expert - $14.95
Be Your Own Rock And Mineral Expert by Michele Pinet and Alain Korkos
Hard cover, 8" x 10", 39 pages, copyright 1997
Sample page

Be Your Own Rock And Mineral Expert introduces its readers to other ways of having fun with stones besides skipping them on the water or kicking them down the road. Here's your chance to learn much more about rocks and minerals through hands-on experiments and other entertaining activities.

Studying rocks and minerals can be an adventure. Go on mineralogical excursions equipped with maps and a compass to find your way, and use a clinometer and geologic hammer for making new discoveries.

By studying the "evidence" you can figure out which types of rock you've found, how rocks are classified, and how to record what you have seen based on the surrounding geography. Create your own geological "lab" where you can make models of fossils, calculate a rock's density, see if it is soluble - and more!
