As anyone who lives near a major fault line could tell you, earthquakes are a very real threat. The compelling and educational text explains why earthquakes happen and discusses the other disasters, such as landslides and tsunamis that they can trigger. A two-page spread focusing on the devastating 2010 earthquake in Haiti, as well as chapters on the San Andreas Fault and the terrible quake that hit Sichuan, China, in 2008 are also included.
