The Water Cycle Kristina Lyn Heitkamp

Water covers almost 75 percent of Earth's surface. People, plants, and animals all need water to live. Through accessible language and engaging images, readers will follow the flow of water through the water cycle. Using real-life examples, readers will identify water cycle steps such as evaporation from puddles and condensation found in clouds or fog. The text also shares opportunities to observe the powerful movement of water. Sidebars offer further information, such as questions that invite readers to consider water use in everyday life and the many human-related activities that affect the water cycle.
