Real-Life Disasters
Investigate What Really Happened!
Susan Martineau & Vicky Barker
(b small publishing)
£7.99
After winning the Blue Peter Award for Real-Life Mysteries, it is natural that Susan Martineau and Vicky Barker return with more. They have a solid format in presenting a story, then following it up with its location, eye-witness evidence, likely and scientific explanations.
While some of the Real-Life Disasters included, like the sinking of the Titanic are familiar, even here, we learn something new. Did you know, for example, that the metal used in the construction of this megalith was not strong enough to withstand icebergs? Then there are less familiar stories, such as the horrific ship collision in the Halifax harbour in 1917. Or the poisoning of Cameroon villages through poisonous lakes.
Real-Life Disasters is absolutely absorbing. Its research, studious presentation and content make this book one that draws readers in and maintains interest. Bookwagon is delighted to recommend this title for home or school.
