About this book
When the ground shakes beneath the ocean, powerful waves can form and travel across entire oceans. This book explains how underwater earthquakes create tsunamis, examining the destruction caused by the 2004 Indonesian tsunami to show just how powerful these waves can be. Young readers will also discover how scientists study tsunamis and the warning systems that help keep people safe when disaster strikes.
