'In this series, the reader learns about a variety of natural disasters that take place around the world. The books are very interesting and important for young readers to learn about given the number of natural disasters around the world. The photographs support the text and help readers to understand the severe impact natural disasters have on a community. These non-fiction books include numerous non-fiction text features to support the reader in understanding the important facts in the book. Some non-fiction text features included in each book are engaging photographs, a map, a table of contents, labels, headings, bold-faced words, a chart, a glossary, and an index. For fellow educators, these books are a dream for teaching non-fiction text features and utilizing them for student research projects. The books are all set up in the same format, which allows for whole group discussions on the text features and information within the text. The books share similar information in the same order, thus allowing for great discussions for students to share about their ‘natural disaster’. These books are great for any reader wanting to know more about natural disasters!', Charity Nadrozny, 2nd Grade Teacher, Illinois, Educator Review
