    Paperback (Bellwether Media, Aug. 1, 2019)
    Batten down the hatches! A hurricane is on the move. These powerful storms start in the ocean, but they quickly make their way to the coast. Their winds turn debris into dangerous projectiles. Their rains cause flooding in low-lying areas. But can this damage be prevented? This low-level title introduces readers to hurricanes, including how they form, how meteorologists predict them, and what damage they cause to affected areas. Special features such as a map, a formation diagram, and a Saffir-Simpson scale chart bring readers right into the eye of the hurricane! From blizzards to hurricanes, tsunamis to volcanic eruptions, natural disasters affect billions of people across the world every year. But how do these events form, and what can we do to predict them? This low-level series is packed with formation diagrams, real-life disaster profiles, and other special features. Readers will walk away with an understanding of what causes natural disasters, how to prepare for them, and when to batten down the hatches!
