Iggy and the Volcano Sandra Courtney Lawson

Iggy and the Volcano is a fiction meets science story.  It's the delightful tale of a lonely little rock, named Rocky, who wishes for a friend and receives one in a most unexpected way.  His new friend, Iggy, teaches him how he was formed in the heart of the earth, and then blown out in a volcanic eruption.  This highly entertaining story will teach children how igneous rocks are created, the parts of a strato volcano, and how volcanos are formed. It's a learning experience children will want to revisit again and again.  This book is an excellent introduction to earth science in a fun and engaging way, for preschool and elementary children.
