Calling Science, Math, and geography teachers…have I got a book for you!

So I found a cool book in the library that uses aspects of Earth such as tides, the affect of gravity on mass on different planets, earthquakes, etc to produce different kinds of graphs, tables, and timelines. Great examples are given, along with explanations of when to use different kinds of graphs. It’s written for 5th grade or so, and can be found downstairs at
