Join award-winning science writer Seymour Simon in this picture book introduction to volcanoes!

Volcanoes don't always look like mountains; they aren't always full of fire. Some are holes in the ground; some form under the sea. And despite their reputation for destruction, volcanoes produce new mountains, new islands, and new soil. Visit some of the world's most remarkable volcanoes in this masterful introduction from Seymour Simon. It's an extraordinary--and unforgettable--trip.

With clear, simple text and stunning full-color photographs, readers will learn all about these amazing natural structures in this informative picture book!

Perfect for young scientists' school reports, this book supports the Common Core State Standards.
