BOOK: 7/28/18 National Geographic Absolute Export Volcanoes
wow haven't done this in a while. Kpop fans, looks like you get the next 4 days off, because I am going back to the book grind. I have been blessed with the opportunity to review 4 books by the folks at national geographic. Will just be giving my brief thoughts on them, and I do hope you consider checking them out at your local library or giving them a purchase.
Summary: (goodreads) Get expert insights from National Geographic explorer and volcanologist Arianna Soldati in this lava-hot book, exploding with the most up-to-date geological intel straight from the field.
Plunge deep beneath Earth's crust to find out how volcanoes form. Get up close to clouds of ash and molten lava. Learn about the biggest, most extreme volcanic eruptions to date. On the hunt for incredible volcanoes, you'll travel around the globe, dive into the depths of the oceans, journey into space...and so much more!
History's most famous volcanic eruptions are all included: Mount Vesuvus, Mauna Loa, Stromboli, Mount Etna, Olympus Mons, and more. With special features, sidebars, wacky trivia, and more, it's the ultimate book to help YOU become an absolute expert on one of your favorite subjects.
My Thoughts: So this is a book with a younger audience in mind so i will keep that in mind when writing my thoughts. But wow it was a really well put together book. Me personally, I always loved National Geographic because they always had some amazing facts that got me interested in the world. And this book was no different. First off, I just want to mention the pictures in this book are absolutely stunning. The contrast from the different colors is just beautiful, and the visual aids help keep me, a reader that can get distracted by lots of information, focused. The information itself is super solid, I did like how the book had a whole section where an actual expert talked about the subject. Overall, would definitely recommend to the curious young child.
