Droughts / Stewart, Melissa; Ceolin, Andre (ill.) 2017  Book
Stewart, Melissa Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication New York, HarperCollins Publishers, 2017.
Description 38pYellow spine
Series Let's Read and Find-Out Science
Summary/Abstract Beginning with a definition of a drought, a double-page spread effectively describes and illustrates the water cycle, and Stewart explains how things can disrupt regular weather patterns to produce droughts. As a drought continues, conditions worsen: there are soil erosion and dust storms; the food chain collapses as plants and animals die. Scientists study patterns to learn to predict droughts, and people can take some measures to prepare for and help alleviate drought conditions.
