Salty and the Billion-Year Secret

Have you ever tasted ocean water and wondered why it is so salty?

Follow Salty, a small, round, bright blue drop of water with big curious eyes, on a journey to uncover a secret that is billions of years old. Rain, rivers, and even glowing underwater volcanoes all play a part in making the ocean salty, and Salty is ready to show little explorers exactly how.

Along the way, children will learn the real science behind minerals, evaporation, and why salt stays in the sea when water rises into the sky. It is all told in gentle, rhythmic, read-aloud language perfect for storytime, naptime, or bedtime.
