Mountain Dance

By Thomas Locker

Book Overview

Listen. The earth seems still and quiet, but constantly, silently, it is moving and changing.
Mountain Dance takes readers from summit to shore, and into the depths of the earth, exploring the geographic forces it takes to move, build, and wear away the great peaks and valleys of our planet. Thomas Locker's poetic text and exquisitely detailed paintings reveal fascinating details of geology in this beautiful and inspiring introduction to earth science.

Geology for Preschoolers

This book describes various geological phenomena, such as the rising up of mountains and the forces behind volcanoes, all in easy vocabulary and a text short enough to hold the interest of the under five crowd. At the end of the book are some more detailed bits of scientific information about each page, to help parents and teachers with the why and how questions that will inevitably follow. (...)

GREAT HUDSON VALLEY ARTIST!

I have every single book by Mr. Locker and wait anxiously for each new one! Mr. Locker is one of the greatest Hudson Valley artists of all time. If you have not seen his work in person, then the books are the next best thing. His work is outstanding! Congrats, Mr. Locker, and keep the books coming!
