School Library Journal - 04/01/2023 Gr 3 Up—There seem to be an unprecedented number of unusual meteorological and other natural disasters in the wake of global warming. Aiming to help demystify these sometimes scary topics, these titles offer examples of real natural disasters, show real people living through them, and explain the start-to-finish of each. Time is spent on the after effects and human aspects of disasters in a neutral way, in keeping with the same tone as the scientific explanations of the phenomena. VERDICT A vital series for public and school libraries, covering crucial questions like how natural disasters occur, alongside safety and preparedness tips for families. - Copyright 2023 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
