Description

What is it like to witness a tornado This book looks at the Moore, El Reno, and other tornadoes, using firsthand accounts to describe events and people's experiences, providing multiple perspectives from eyewitnesses, survivors, the emergency services, scientists, and the media.

Reviews

Eyewitness accounts and stories of survivors are intriguing and unimaginable. However they enable readers to "literally" experience the devastation. . . .In a limited number of pages, a wealth of information is presented that can readily be understood by young readers. . . .This would be an excellent resource for government agencies to help the average citizen understand what to anticipate, how to prepare and survive a tornado, especially residents in Tornado Alley. Young readers will find this book useful while studying weather phenomena.-- "NSTA Recommends"
