Earthquakes

Most of the Earths changes happen over millions of years. But earthquakes can force significant changes to the land in just a few moments. Students will learn the science of plate tectonics and its role in the development of earthquakes around the globe. They will also learn that not all rocks are created equally. In fact, rocks are all different ages! The book concludes with images of the damage and destruction that earthquakes can cause.

About the author

Dona does not know which is more fun-learning about the world through science, or writing books for children that tell all about it. She is glad she does not have to decide and can do both!
