Science Literacy #4

 

The Earth is an ever-changing planet. Most of the time, it is sweet and cozy but sometimes it’s an absolutely horrible place to be. During the history of the Earth, horrible disasters have happened several times, for example when the moon was created and when the dinosaurs died out. Massive volcanic eruptions and great ice ages have radically changed the Earth and the course of life. Ultimately, these worst events in Earth's history led to you.

Natural Disasters on Earth is the fourth instalment in the easy-to-read and hugely popular Science Literacy series, which contains fun information and playful facts from the world of science.

Nominated for the Icelandic Literary Prize 2023, in the category of children's books
