Explore the science of the Earth with Smithsonian Discover: Earth. With Smithsonian Discover: Earth, kids can take a tour of Earth’s fiery core, scale Mount Everest, scuba-dive in the Great Barrier Reef, and hunker down during a hurricane, all without ever leaving the safety of their living rooms. A must-have for any kid who calls Earth home, this engaging book contains three sections: Amazing Earth (all about the inside and outside of the planet), the Blue Planet (covering awesome oceans, raging rivers, and great lakes), and Wild Weather (which explains the science of weather and goes inside natural disasters). Each page contains science presented simply, and facts backed by the museum professionals of the Smithsonian. The compelling content is only the tip of the iceberg (only a tenth of which floats above the ocean’s surface, as you’ll learn). This engaging title also delivers hands-on activities like you would find at the Smithsonian. Bound right into the book are 12 Earth fact cards, a large double-sided map of the world, and materials to construct a three-dimensional paper globe. Though we walk its surface every day, Smithsonian Discover: Earth will surely teach kids that Earth is one fascinating planet!

Featuring Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and Other Classic Disney Characters!

With Learn to Draw Disney's Mickey Mouse and His Friends, artists-in-training can use the easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions to draw Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy, and Pluto.



For 90 years, Mickey Mouse has delighted and inspired generations of Disney fans. No other character, classic or contemporary, occupies a similar space in the hearts and minds of people from around the world. In this expanded edition of Walter Foster Publishing's beloved title, Learn to Draw Mickey and His Friends, young artists will enjoy learning to draw all of their favorite classic Disney characters, including Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Goofy, and Pluto, in a range of poses and with various expressions.



The book opens by introducing artists to a small selection of essential drawing tools and materials, as well as a range of options for adding color. Artists are then guided through a warm-up with some quick and easy sketching exercises before moving on to the step-by-step drawing projects. Each drawing lesson begins with a basic shape, such as a circle or an oval, with each new step building upon the previous one, eventually progressing to a finished piece of artwork. New steps are shown in blue, so young artists know exactly what to draw next. The final step is to add color to the drawing with felt-tip markers, colored pencils, watercolors, or acrylic paints.



Classic Disney story frames and tips from professional Disney artists round out this beautifully designed and illustrated full-color book destined to become an heirloom passed down to future generations.
