What do the rocks look like?


Shared Read Genre • Expository Text Rock Solid
“Solid as a rock” is a saying often used to describe something
that’s reliable, that doesn’t change. But, in fact, rocks do change.
The effects of water, wind, and temperature over long periods of
time slowly transform one type of rock into another type of rock.
These same forces also shape awe-inspiring landscapes and
sketch designs on rock. Nature’s patterns are visible in some rocks
as small as pebbles and in wonders as vast as the Grand Canyon.

The photograph across these pages shows one example of


nature’s art. This structure of rock, known as the Wave formation,
is made of sandstone. It is sand turned to rock over a long period
of time.
