When a young girl finds a sparkly rock buried in the dirt and discovers that it cleans to a beautiful quartz crystal, she is fascinated and becomes Julie the Rockhound. Join Julie as her dad shows her how to dig for minerals and explains the wonders of crystal formation. Combining clever wordplay with earth science, young readers learn about Earth's most abundant mineral "treasure." Sylvan Dell is a publisher of illustrated children's books, but we are also a serious education company committed to making a difference in literacy, language, and cross-curricular learning. We believe that you use fiction picturebooks as a tee-up to get children reading and peak their interest in a subject, then you burrow in and teach the non-fiction components that we make freely available. We offer teachers and parents a Science and Math Through Literature Program that is fun, cross-curricular, and high tech. It seamlessly integrates reading, science, math, geography, character skills, and language learning.
