Sample Text
"From aardvarks to zebras, every living creature needs shelter. Birds build nests. Beavers dam up streams to make their lodges. Rabbits dig burrows. Turtles carry their houses with them. And humans build shelters, too, in all kinds of places – from high on mountaintops to deep below the ground – in every shape and size – circles, squares, triangles, rectangles, and domes, and from sprawling royal palaces to tiny one-room huts. . . "

GEOGRAPHYGEOGRAPHY
"If it's about Earth's land, water, air, or living things-- particularly people-- it's geography. The word comes from the Greek "geo," which means "earth," and "graphy," which means "writing or description." Physical geographers study landforms, water, soil, climate, and the distribution of living things.
