D. I would certainly use this book as a resource in any science classroom. Additionally, I would recommend using this text when teaching text features. Because the content is so diverse, the text itself will certainly appeal to any demographic. Therefore, this would make an excellent text to teach text features because the content relies on the features and is inherently engaging.

Super interesting! I wish I had a few hours to *really* go through it, but even just from skimming the Earth and Fire parts, I think it's fascinating! It's an interesting way to lay out an earth science book, but it totally works. I'll definitely be recommending this one to the kiddos! Super interesting!

4.5 stars as I somehow experienced a very subtle feeling of incoherence with this book, but I cannot name it. It's is an absolutely minor complaint, because this book is a wonderful way to learn about the world. I really like the idea with the 4 elements layout. 4.5 stars as I somehow experienced a very subtle feeling of incoherence with this book, but I cannot name it.
