Earthquakes: Disaster & Survival

By Jennifer Reed

Deep under ground, tectonic plates collide and send powerful shock waves through the earth's crust. Suddenly, the whole world seems to shake as unbelievable forces topple buildings, raise the ocean, and split the ground. Author Jennifer Bond Reed explores the causes behind these worldwide tragedies, tells survivors' stories, and explains how young people can prepare for earthquakes.
