Customer Reviews

Oil(True Books: Natural Resources

This book was very informative, but to the point. The part about what products come from petroleum was very useful.

Good Overview

My son used this as a guide for a report on oil in the fourth grade. It has varied topics, such as drilling for oil, what products are made with oil, the role of the refinery, and the future of energy, etc. It's a short book and an easy read for I'd say 3rd and 4th grade.
