Summary

We have all seen images of fiery red lava exploding from the angry mouth of a volcano. But, while most of us have seen this on television, in a movie, or in National Geographic, volcanologists (scientists who study volcanoes) witness this as part of their job! This title provides an exciting read for volcano enthusiasts, geology fans, and thrill seekers alike. Vivid illustrations complement Hayhurst's deft writing style.
