About the Planet Builders series
Planet Builders is a series of illustrated adventures for readers aged ten to twelve about rocks, volcanoes, weather and water. When Lena taps a rock with an old field hammer, she and Kai can watch, through a window of light, the moment that rock was made; no adult can see it. Each book delivers one Earth-science topic through a real present-day danger, and shows how scientists prove the same story without magic.
