Synopses & Reviews
This book introduces children to the nation's watershed, the Continental Divide, and how snowmelt forms the headwaters of the rivers and streams that bring life to the land below. The entire water cycle is described, from evaporation to glacier formation, and the various life zones that water runs through on its was from alpine tundra to prairie are detailed in exquisite drawings. There is a further discussion about how we use water, the treatment process, and what happens to it after we use it.
