Special features such as a map, a formation diagram, and a Richter scale chart introduce the key concepts of these powerful disasters to young readers.
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!
