内容简介:
What spot on Earth have thousands of adventurers tried to reach, but has been seen by only 660 people? In what body of water is it almost impossible to sink -- or swim? Where is the climate so dry that young children have never seen rain? This exciting series gives kids an opportunity to learn about the tallest, the deepest, the hottest, the coldest, and the most dangerous places on Earth. A great introduction to Earth Science, this series looks at some of nature's most famous and amazing record breakers The Pacific Ocean is big enough to hold all seven continents and still have room for one more. This great body of water covers one-third of Earth's surface. It is an extraordinary source of food, adventure, and at times, powerful destruction.
