About This Book
The Grand Canyon is a mysterious canyon that Nature has created for hundreds of millions of years, It is the largest and deepest valley in the planet and across the state of Nevada. Built over an estimated two billion years, the gorge is about 446 kilometers long, about 1.6 kilometers in average depth, and 4,930 square kilometers in size. As well as being a mysterious, beautiful and diverse nature, it is a UNESCO World Heritage site with high academic value. The majestic and mysterious scenery that overwhelms people is one of the places I want to visit before I die. In the United States and Europe, the Grand Canyon is the first place that parents want to visit with their children.
The book is about how the Grand Canyon went through today as the girl and father traveled Is introduced. Girls and dads who set off early in the morning from the Inner Koji oasis, the highest temperature floor in the Grand Canyon, climb higher and higher. The journey of the girl and father begins at the Vishnu bedrock of 1.8 billion years ago, passes through numerous strata, and is completed at the top of the Grand Canyon, the Kaiabab, which was built some 200 million years ago. As such, the Grand Canyon has a total of 13 rock layers stacked in chronological order from 1.8 billion years ago to 200 million years ago. So I call the Grand Canyon the history book of the earth. Imagine a girl and a dad walking through the Grand Canyon and seeing the age of each stratum and the creatures that lived at that time. Its like traveling on time and watching the Earth Museum. It is a picture book that gives readers a feeling of traveling directly to the Grand Canyon by following the steps of a girl and father. With a professional and faithful guide.
