Companion summary

Have you ever looked out a window and noticed some land is flat and some is bumpy and tall? When you go on a trip, the shape of the land tells you if roads will be steep or rivers will flow nearby. Mountains are so high they can make their own clouds right at the top. When you finish, try drawing the land you can see from your window or garden.
