Recensione:

Illustrating the text are exceptionally fine photos of volcanic landscapes and members of the expeditions. Sidebars carry clear descriptions and pictures (often diagrams) related to such topics as the formation of volcanoes, the types of lava, and the Volcanic Explosivity Index ... A natural for nonfiction booktalking.―Booklist

The O'Mearas' cameras catch somnolent giants and vivid eruptors alike, and fill the pages with pyrotechnic displays and incandescent lava streams.―School Library Journal

Riveting ... filled with stunning color photographs and an abundance of basic volcano information, placed in easy-to-digest sidebars.―Washington Post

L'autore:

Donna O'Meara has been hunting and photographing the world's most dangerous volcanoes for almost 20 years. Many of her photographs have appeared in National Geographic.
