Summary
A new title in the First Graphics Series, Earthquakes! explains how this terrifying natural phenomena happens, how we track them, and how we can stay safe when they occur.

Analysis
The books in the First Graphics Series are always solid choices, and this one is no different. They also serve a two-fold purpose: first, they teach emergent readers the proper way to read graphic novels, and second, they also impart real world knowledge about specific subjects.

Final Thoughts
 
Solidly written, well presented and illustrated in a kid friendly way. These are always a good choice for classrooms, science minded kids and and school libraries.
