Mattison Shreero, a Geoscientist and Park Ranger at Badlands National Park, wrote, "This work brilliantly reframes the often-feared Yellowstone Supervolcano as the superhero of America's first national park, thereby dispelling the widespread misinformation pertaining to Yellowstone volcanism. The world needs more books like this!"
With fascinating facts, vibrant illustrations, and a universally captivating topic, The Super Volcano sparks STEM curiosity in young readers and teaches the values of empathy and compassion for our non-human neighbors.
A Teacher’s Guide, downloadable from the publisher’s website, extends and expands the content of the book.
