Publisher Comments:

Sand and soil are both formed from the rock. Types of soil form depending on the climate in different parts of the world. Without soil, plants and crops could not grow and animals and wildlife will not live. Children will learn how soil and sand are formed, the importance of soil, soil erosion and pollution concerns, and the types of sand and soil.
