Science Comics: Volcanoes: Fire and Life by Jon Chad
4.0
A little story told in a way to really get nerdy about volcanoes. There has been something happen to Earth so there is permanent winter. Tribes roam the old world looking for anything to burn. They scan in books into a computer to save knowledge before they burn it. A girl finds a book on Volcanoes and believes if they find one, they can find a way to keep warm.
I was surprised that is was a compelling story. They did it well. It reminds me of this little series we watched in grade school on the card catalog and how to find information. The world sorta ends and there is a little race of humanity trying to survive against this new species. They stumble into a library and somehow the library was frozen in time and she shows them how to look up information to find winning strategies. We loved it as kids.
I can see kids enjoying this story and you learn a whole geek ton of stuff about volcanoes. I knew the basics, but it was a great reminder. Fun and entertaining and learning.
I’m leaving these younger books out to see if any of them interest my niece. She is enjoying reading graphic novels right now and whatever to keep her reading.
