The cool story of volcanoes will intrigue kids and adults alike. Hot melted rock from the middle of our planet forces its way up through cracks in the Earth’s crusts, exploding violently and sometimes unexpectedly in volcanic fury that can terrorize populations for months, even years. Anne Schreiber’s narrative gives readers a little of the science, a little of the history, and a lot of the action. National Geographic photography fires the imagination on dramatic spreads alive with vivid images of lava, ash, molten rock, weird rocks, and steaming seawater.

Great book for any age!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 21, 2012Verified Purchase
I actually purchased this used and it was in very good condition as I only paid a couple of pounds for it.
Very formative book about volcanoes, nice glossy photographs and clear text, but wouldn't have expected anything less from National Geographic.
It was such a nice book I saved it and wrapped it as part of my 8 years (then 7)step sons Christmas books; we have read it lots of times together (I have even read it on my own, it's a really good book as I knew very little about volcanoes)and looking at photographs he loves it and now know recites back to us from cover to cover.
A must by for any child interested in these kind of topics.

A good visual introduction to volcanoes
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 16, 2012Verified Purchase
I bought copies for my year 4 class as a basic introduction to volcanoes. It does not have lots of information but it does have glossy pictures with short explanations (as stated in my review of Earthquakes). It gives the children images of different volcanoes around the world and includes a map of the `ring of fire'. It is quite a short book but the images are very inspiring. It lacks text but really I think it is designed to engage children visually. It is suitable for lower school junior or less able upper school. I would definitely recommend it for the price (around £2.80).

Disappointed by size
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 30, 2018Verified Purchase
This was much smaller than I expected and more like a magazine than a book. It was a booklet really and perhaps I should have read the description closer. A little disappointed.

A lightweight book
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 18, 2018Verified Purchase
As others have said, it's a booklet/pamphlet rather than a book. Purchased for my 3 year ols niece who loves volcanoes, is a bit grown up for her but her mum reads it to her and she loves the photos.
