What is Natural Disasters about?

What happens when the Earth shakes, a volcano erupts or powerful winds sweep across the land? Natural Disasters introduces young readers to earthquakes, volcanoes, floods, bushfires and other dangerous events caused by weather or movements in the Earth's crust. Clear explanations and colour photographs show what each disaster is, how it can affect people and places, and why understanding these events matters. Contents and an index help readers explore the facts and find information quickly.
