Garnets
Author: Amy Hayes
Publisher: Gareth Stevens Publishing LLLP
ISBN: 1482428644
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 26
Book Description
A garnet’s deep red color can easily be mistaken for a ruby by the untrained eye. However, garnets’ color ranges from colorless to black to red and even green! They’ve been precious gems for many thousands of years, commonly found in metamorphic rocks. This volume introduces readers to the creation, structure, and properties of garnets. Dazzling photographs highlight the valuable gem as important geology topics are explained in an age-appropriate, understandable way. Fun fact boxes offer readers surprising bits of knowledge, such as garnets’ use in sandpaper, and a graphic organizer allows readers to process this information in another way.

Pages : 300
Book Description
After the death of her longtime friend and flatmate, retired British history teacher Julia Garnet does something completely out of character: She takes a six-month rental on a modest apartment in Venice. She befriends a young Italian boy and English twins who are restoring a fourteenth-century chapel. And she falls in love for the first time in her life with an art dealer named Carlo.
