Product Overview
Do you know a kid who loves rocks? Do they love the thrill of the hunt? How about an adventure tale for kids ages 4 - 8 with a seek-and-find bonus?
Scavenger Scout is not an ordinary seven-year-old. She's a rock hound! Hunting for rocks is her passion and she loves to show and tell. The stories she tells are more fantasy than reality, but the rocks she hunts are real. Follow along as Scout hunts for azurite, alexandrite and fluorite and find the rock on every page!
Seek-and-find element
The story of Scavenger Scout will appeal to kids who love to hunt and who love adventure, so why not give them what they want? In each vignette, Scout hunts for a different rock and kids get to hunt with her! The difficulty level varies with each page so even kids as young as 2 or 3 will be able to find the rocks. Only the most eagle-eyed kids will be able to spot the fluorite in the mermaid scene.
STEM-inspired story that encourages creative problem solving
Scavenger Scout uses science, technology, engineering, math (STEM) concepts to overcome the challenges she faces. Kids will delight in the real-life rock hounding tools Scout uses such as a crack hammer, chisel or a rock hammer. Kids can use their powers of observation to search for the rock on each page and come up with hypotheses for how they would get each of the rocks home.
Scavenger Scout: Rock Hound is the perfect holiday gift or birthday gift, but would also be a great gift for when your favorite girl scout or boy scout moves up from Daisies to Brownies or Bobcat to Tiger Cub or Scout to Tenderfoot.
This book is the first book in a series and is crafted for ages 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, preschool and kindergarten, 1st grade and 2nd grade.
