REVIEW: Water is always flowing. It runs down sidewalks after a rainstorm and may trickle into a brook near your home. From raindrops to a sea-follow water's journey as it flows from a brook, to a stream, to a river, and finally to the ocean. In this book it talks about how water shapes the earth, how people use water, why it is important to keep our water clean, and how water travels.
