Reviews / Votes
The books are clearly written and well illustrated with maps, diagrams and photographs.What is most impressive about this series, however, is the use it makes of newspaper reports, eyewitness accounts and photographs to bring home the human dimensions of each of these natural phenomena. - Children's Books in Ireland, Winter 2000More details
