  The shape of the Earth is always changing. The power of moving water wears away the land to form deep valleys and magnificent waterfalls. This book looks at how rivers change the landscape as they flow from mountain springs and wind their way down to the sea. It also looks at how rivers provide a home for plants and animals and how humans use rivers. The text introduces children to the basic principles of physical geography and explores the ever-changing face of the Earth.
