Claire Watts, "Natural Disasters"

Summary: When Nature Goes on a Rampage!

Rating: 5

I am a big fan of the Dorling Kindersley 'Eyewitness Books' series. They offer an appealing combination of concise text and colorful images that provide a basic understanding of a particular subject. NATURAL DISASTERS, published by DK in 2006, offers a fascinating if sometimes scary look at the destructive forces mother nature has at her beck and call. While the book is intended for readers 9-12 years old, older readers will also find NATURAL DISASTERS of interest.

After brief sections on our restless earth, author Claire Watts discusses tsunamis, earthquakes, volcanoes, landslides/avalanches, hurricanes/tornadoes, floods, droughts, fires, climate changes, unnatural disasters, diseases/epidemics, and future disasters. Each topic gets at least a two-page spread with basic information on that topic and six-eight b&w and/or color photographs, maps or diagrams showing, for example, what an avalanche in action looks like and its aftermath. Some topics rate additional pages. The tsunami section, for instance, runs to 12 pages. The book also includes an FAQ section, glossary and useful websites but, curiously, no bibliography.

The information and illustrations are appropriate for the intended age level. Some of the images, especially of people in peril, might be too intense for younger readers.

Watts' book would be ideal for students reports and for anyone with a beginning interest in the world of natural disasters, how people cope with them and how nations/agencies work to minimize the damage they inflict. Recommended.
