Fascinated my 4 year old

I Wonder Why Volcanoes Blow Their Tops: and Other Questions About Natural Disasters Good pictures, short bits of information just right for a 4 year old or even older. My boy is fascinated with natural disasters so this is right up his alley. We already had several books on the subject, but this was a nice addition. Not too wordy or scientific, but also does not talk down to a bright child.
