In graphic novel format, text and illustrations explain how earthquakes happen, how their strength is measured, and how to stay safe during one.
Early nonfiction readers meet graphic novels in this series that provides engaging basic natural disaster overviews. The three chapter structure introduces a natural disaster, how people study it, and ways to stay safe. Illustrated panels include maps and labeled diagrams, allowing for media literacy and social studies connections.-- "Library Media Connection"
The detail in this book does go quite in depth, much more so than one would expect for such a short book at this reading level.-- "Back to Books blog"
