Publisher Description: Natural disasters come in all shapes and sizes, each one posing a unique threat to the environment, communities, and people therein. How do young people fare when left to their own devices in the face of nature's unbridled wrath? Discover the answer in Survival Stories, an illustrated series of books that shows the strength and resourcefulness of youth--and what they are capable of when the will to survive kicks takes hold. Each book is a fast-paced, real-time tale of everyday kids facing exceptional circumstances. Discussion questions, writing prompts, and nonfiction information on each book's natural disaster makes this series of books soar past the standard reading experience and into the realm of self-empowerment and personal agency. |
