Series: Horrible Geography
Notes
Does Geography grind you down? Fed up with miserable maps, rotten rock piles and dire diagrams? Wave goodbye to boring lessons as you brace yourself for the shocking world of earth-shattering earthquakes. Gasp at the earthquake that made a river runs backwards, or run as an earthquake sends the sea surging towards you in a gigantic wave, or giggle at the hamster that was shaken out of his cage, and you can also find out what it takes to become an earthquake expert, as well as learn how to survive if an earthquake strikes and discover how rats and snakes can predict tremors. It’s earth-shatteringly exciting. Geography has never been so horrible!
