Dorling Kindersley – författare

Vad finns under marken? Hur bildas berg? Vad händer när glaciärer smälter och varför är skogar viktiga? Upptäck vår planet i denna faktaspäckade och storslagna bok om vår planet. Magnifika och detaljrika bilder levandegör jordens enorma mångfald av växter, djur, natur och människor. Här kan du bland annat lära dig om olika livsmiljöer och ekosystem - i grottor, bland gigantiska redwood-träd, på savannen och djupt nere i haven. Du kan ta reda på vad som håller jorden kvar på sin plats i solsystemet, besöka en regnskog eller utforska den livsfarliga vägen upp till Mount Everests topp.  

Stora boken om jorden är en fascinerande, allomfattande och mycket rikt illustrerad faktabok som visar vår otroliga planet som du aldrig sett den förut. Läs, titta och låt dig förundras!

Shows students “What’s the point?” of improving writing skills

Writing for Life: Sentences and Paragraphs is part of a two-book series that helps students understand the importance of strong writing skills and motivates them to become better writers. Students are encouraged to take charge of their own learning, and to transfer the strategies they currently apply to reading visuals to reading and writing text. The Third Edition offers high-interest topics, meaningful visuals, clear learning objectives, a wealth of examples, and ample opportunities for students to exercise their own writing skills.
