Water – it can be hard as rock, silky soft, and often barely there. We can’t live without it, but can’t breathe within it. This shape-shifting element washes in on our shores, pours on our towns, and winds through our fields. We are mostly made out of water, but how much do we really know about it? Children will love learning all about the world of water in this beautifully illustrated and colorful book. 


At DK, we believe in the power of discovery.

So why stop there?
