Children's Literature
The cover alone is enough to grab the attention of most kids. This exploding volcano has the look of 4th of July fireworks. Basic information about volcanoes—inner core, shield, dome, and the different types of volcanoes and the serious danger that composites pose are all clearly presented. Photographs show the power of erupting volcanoes and the results. The book's great spread of photos show some of the more than 500 active volcanoes worldwide and clearly show that more than half of them are around the Pacific Ocean in what is known as the Ring of Fire. Many volcanoes are extinct such as Crater Lake, which has been filled with water, while others may just be dormant. Simon also points out the positive side of volcanoes—they create new land and in places where eruptions have occurred, plant and animal life have rebounded fairly quickly. High quality photographs on each page help bring these volcanoes right into the readers' world. An excellent selection for home or school. Level 2, Grades 1-3. 2002, SeaStar,

School Library Journal
Gr 1-3-Simon gets to the essence of his subjects through bold, dramatic color photographs and short, crisp texts. The first book draws comparisons between how long it took early aircraft to accomplish their missions and how long it takes modern planes; the inclusion of data about an aircraft of the future adds a touch of excitement. The description of the Hindenburg tragedy, however, seems stuck in between the discussions of various types of vehicles and their capabilities. Still, this is a good introductory title. Volcanoes begins with two full-page spreads of volcanoes erupting, first with a sky of smoke and then with a sky of fire. There can be no doubt in youngsters' minds that they are reading about something powerful, and Simon describes the damage as well as the positive aspects of these explosions. The photographs are so compelling that it is a shame that they are not identified (although the sources are given). How a volcano changes the weather and how lava comes through that hole in the ground are left unanswered, but this introductory book is meant to whet the appetite, and that it does.-Edith Ching, St. Albans School, Mt. St. Alban, Washington, DC Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information.
