Review Quotes: "The focus of this inherently fascinating introduction to the science that lies behind the creation of various natural disasters is what makes this series have a particularly recommended appeal for family, school and community library... Enhanced with full color photography and illustrative drawings, each individual title also informs the readers about the people who study, forecast, and observe these phenomena in action; how to stay safe during a natural disaster (including what goes into an emergency kit); and provides a simple activity or suggestion for their own observations."
