Synopsis

Discover the causes―and consequences―of volcanoes with this introduction to natural disasters for young readers!

Is it true that, at any given time, about 20 volcanoes are erupting somewhere on Earth? Yes! Sometimes volcanoes erupt with a big, dangerous bang. Other times they spit out lava so slowly that you could walk faster than it flows.

Inside you'll find:

• How volcanoes form, when they erupt, and an account of the most devastating ones in recent history

• A hands-on activity, a timeline, photos, diagrams―and how scientists are studying volcanoes and their impact on our planet

• Surprising TRUE facts that will shock and amaze you!
