Volcano: Where Fire and Water Meet by Mary M. Cerullo (Capstone, 2021; a Smithsonian book) features color photography from around the world to teach about volcanoes. The book focuses on Hawaiian island volcanoes, although it does talk about other types of volcanoes, other famous volcanoes, and how volcanoes change the face of the Earth. There are many factual captions, explanations, and details, and yet the book reads like a story. Everyone can enjoy the photographs, and the text is best read to older children rather than younger children.
