Earthshake; Poems From the Ground Up

This book includes 22 short poems with a geologic theme, including items on techtonic plates, lava, fossils, granite, and geodes, among others. Sometimes silly, sometimes serious, the poems will engage reader's imaginations. Nice supplement for a rocks unit in science. Written by St. Paulite Lisa Westberg Peters, illustrated by Cathie Felstead, it was a finalist for the Minnesota Book Award in 2004.
