Book Description
From individual grains to desert dunes, from the bottom of the sea to the landscapes of Mars, and from billions of years in the past to the future, this is the extraordinary story of one of nature's humblest, most powerful, and most ubiquitous materials. Told by a geologist with a novelist's sense of language and narrative, Sand examines the science—sand forensics, the physics of granular materials, sedimentology, paleontology and archaeology, planetary exploration—and at the same time explores the rich human context of sand. Interwoven with tales of artists, mathematicians, explorers, and even a vampire, the story of sand is an epic of environmental construction and destruction, an adventure in staggering scales of time and distance, yet a tale that encompasses the ordinary and everyday. Sand, in fact, is all around us—it has made possible our computers, buildings and windows, toothpaste, cosmetics, and paper, and it has played dramatic roles in human history, commerce, and imagination. In this luminous, kinetic, revelatory account, we do indeed find the world in a grain of sand.

Book Description
This Poetry Must be Read with Emotion; Read the Words - Feel the Music! “his voice was like the sound of many waters” Oceans and oceans, The sea, the sea, the sea, Great waves crashing against the shore. Again and again they crash, Like the wrath of God upon the works of men. The rolling waves. The constant flow. A thousand little streaks of light. It is a song. It is a never ending melody. A thousand little streaks of light. Oceans and oceans, The sea, the sea, the sea, Great waves crashing against the shore. The dreams, the ideas, the plans, Again and again the wrath of God Will clash with the plans of men. And their dreams tumble. The ideas of men collapse. So they are no more But a heap of rubbish, A page of meaningless symbols, A forgotten field, A plot of ground, A grave. To rest, To sleep Forever, forever, forever. Oceans and oceans, The sea, the sea, the sea, Great waves crashing against the shore.

When a young child finds her great-great grandfather Wilhelm’s journal detailing his voyage across the Atlantic as an emigrant sailing from Bremerhaven, Germany to America in 1872, she is transported back in time. The journal entries capture young Wilhelm’s hopes of escaping poverty, the adventure and poignancy of leaving behind all that is familiar, the wonders of life on the open sea, the work of the sailors, the daily struggles of sleeping in steerage, sea sickness, insect infestations, and boredom, but also the children's games and sense of community on board. And finally, the big day comes as the Columbia reaches the port of New York! Sidebar facts throughout offer insights about navigational tools, seamen’s knots, sea creatures, and more in this historical picture book about the great age of emigration and life aboard a sailing ship.
