Another great book from IP Factly! If your child is asking you questions and wants to know more about volcanoes then share this book with them! Do they have a school project to write? This book is a great resource. Great pictures (photos and diagrams) and information.Learn about the different kinds of volcanoes, how they work, where the word lava comes from, what active, extinct and dormant means, famous volcanoes, volcanoes on other planets and so much more!Did you know that pyroclastic flows can be hotter than 1,832F (1000C)?! How about that the explosion of Krakatoa in 1883 released energy equivalent of 15,000 nuclear bombs!At the end of the book there is a link to the videos on their website. They have put together a group of 12 videos on Volcanoes. We use these books and videos as resources in our homeschool. It saves so much time not having to search through YouTube yourself but parents please be vigilant around your children as sometimes the Google "click" ads that appear on the bottom of the screen are not appropriate for kids. When we are watching I quickly click the X to get rid of it!Great resource and highly recommended from our house to yours.
