Water is essential for all life on Earth. From irrigating fields to drinking it ourselves, water is the one thing that separates Earth from other uninhabitable planets. But what happens when water dries up? This book provides a simple introduction to climate change and one of its consequences: drier places are getting drier, and places that weren't dry before are also getting drier. This results in drought, fires, and harm to people and animals. The age-appropriate content and text help the youngest readers begin to understand climate science and the water cycle as well as conservation.

      Gr 2-3-The series focuses on the effects of climate change on Earth. Each title starts with a table of contents, each section is twopages with short two-to-three sentence paragraphs paired with a photo on each page. Vocabulary words are underlined and bubbles with extra facts can be found throughout the text. Infographics help affirm how the planet is getting warmer and how that then impacts people, animals, and vegetation everywhere. The end of each title offers ways readers can help, such as choosing a meal without meat (Drier). The final page includes a glossary and index. While the design and color of the actual text can be difficult to read at times, the sentences are relatively short and the information is solid, overall. VERDICT A quick informative introduction to climate change for elementary readers.
