Description

Read and find out about water in this colorfully illustrated nonfiction picture book.

Water is always flowing, from a brook to a stream, to a river to the ocean. Read and find out more about how water shapes the earth and why it is important to keep our water clean in this fascinating book from author-illustrator Arthur Dorros. This book clearly explains terms like "brook," "stream," "river," and "delta," and the clear and beautiful illustrations show where water comes from, how it travels, and where it goes.
