Description
Ever wondered what it's like to be a tiny dust speck launched from a volcano into the wild blue sky? Well... Dusty is here to show you.
This STEM picture book for curious kids ages 4 to 9 turns real science into a breezy, brainy adventure through air, fire, weather, and ecosystems -- all seen through the eyes of one very surprised, very fluffy speck of volcanic ash.
Meet Dusty. She's small, silvery, soft -- and suddenly airborne. In the blink of an eye (or maybe a puff of wind), she's swept into swirling sky streams, where she meets Sparky, a focused but kind flame; Ashleigh, a graceful ballerina made of ash; Aerik, a cheerful bubble with sky-high dreams; and Sulphik, a gassy fellow with attitude. She even shares airspace with a sleepy speck, a flying seed, and a wise old albatross!
Each meeting is more than just fun -- it's full of facts!
Kids will learn about volcanoes, evaporation, air flow, condensation, and natural cycles -- all wrapped in a funny, lyrical story that never feels like homework.
This educational nonfiction book for kids blends early science learning with imagination, encouraging children to ask big questions about tiny things.
? Vibrant, full-color illustrations bring invisible forces to life
? Ideal for homeschool science units, classroom read-alouds, or bedtime storytime with a twist
? Based on real science, but sprinkled with humor and a touch of magic
? Encourages STEM curiosity, observation, and joyful discovery
? Side effects may include spontaneous questions like "Can I be a dust speck too?"
Perfect for fans of nature books, volcano books, or science books for 4- to 9-year-olds, this is the first adventure in the series Little Dusty Explores Invisible Worlds -- where nonfiction meets fantasy, and the smallest things reveal the biggest wonders.
In future books, Dusty will dive into oceans, float through clouds, surf on sunbeams, and explore more invisible worlds hiding in plain sight.
Whether you're a nature-loving parent, a science-minded teacher, or a young explorer with big questions, Dusty's journey is a playful, powerful ride through the wonders of our world -- one speck at a time.
