Publisher's Synopsis
Children learn best through tangible objects like rocks. "A Rock Solid History of Hawthorne, New Jersey" explores the history of Hawthorne New Jersey through rocks, and inspires school-aged youngsters to look at their surroundings, learn from what they can touch and see, and keep them searching for more. The book runs through prehistoric times to present day in Hawthorne with compelling language, photos, and go-get-em encouragement. Children will not even realize they are absorbing history and learning some earth science along the way.
