Issues in Earth Science - Nonfiction (Fiction)



Description
Fiction should be written for the feature, "Eww, there's some geology in my fiction!" We are interested in MG and YA fiction that incorporates Earth Science concepts as key, rather than incidental, elements. Stories with adult characters but written for MG or YA will also be considered. The science element should be more substantive than "cool facts" or jargon that is slipped into a story. Rather, the Earth Science concept should both be integral to the story and represent a key idea that might be taught in an Earth Science classroom. Needless to say, the story should be emotionally compelling with characters we care about and conflicts that engage. The purpose of these stories will be to serve as supplemental reading material for middle or high school students who are studying particular topics in Earth Science.
