Grade 4–6—Bright colors, photographs, and charts make up much of these standard titles that examine how these phenomena are formed, where they are located, and the devastation wreaked by them. Both books discuss international and American disasters, including Hurricane Katrina in the first title. The second one has a list of volcanoes available to visitors. Good choices for collections that need newer or additional material.—Eva Elisabeth VonAncken, Trinity-Pawling School, Pawling, NY Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
