Clear, easy-to-read text pairs with oversized, gripping photos to introduce readers to the basics of volcanoes. Readers will learn why eruptions happen, where they occur, and how they change land and affect communities. Types of volcanoes are also explained, and a simple, labeled diagram illustrates the inside of a volcano. A Case Study chapter discusses the Mount Saint Helens eruption of 1980, while a map aids comprehension. Damage and cleanup work, safety methods, measurement, and prediction are also covered. "Breaking News" fact boxes appear throughout, and the book concludes with a "News Flash!" facts page. This compelling title will leave readers feeling more informed about the volcanoes they hear about in the news. Features include a table of contents, a glossary with phonetic spellings, and an index. Big Buddy BOOKS is an imprint of ABDO Publishing Company.
