Basic information about natural disasters is conveyed through human interest stories from recent major events and an emphasis on the impacts on communities, prediction techniques, and safety tips. Contemporary and historical photographs and simple diagrams round out the information. The literacy activities inserted into the texts shift the focus to practicing writing and away from extending scientific understanding. Reading list. Glos., ind. Review covers these Earth in Action titles: Avalanches, Hurricanes, Earthquakes, and Floods.
