O knihe

Akureyri has been served primarily through geothermal sources since the late 1970's. Construction of its geothermal distribution system began in 1976, after the discovery of a commercially viable source was discovered in 1975. But our guide simply told us they get energy from the river, and that the nearby towns in Iceland get their energy from the rivers that run through them; and this is why the title this book is, "River Power, A Kid's Guide To Akureyri, Iceland". That said, the truth is geothermal energy provides about 65% of Iceland's primary energy, and hydro-power about 20%. And this means about 85% of all of the primary energy of Iceland comes from renewable energy sources, which is an amazing fact!
This fun, 'learn to read' book, filled with word recognition, word repetition and rhyme, is meant to get a kid thinking about living in harmony with nature. Written by the award winning author, attorney and former teacher, Penelope Dyan, and complemented by the photography of John D. Weigand, this book will delight! Extra-large print is easy on young eyes, and its size is a perfect 'carry along'. For more learning fun, watch the free music video that goes with this book on the Bellissimavideo YouTube channel.
