Tornado: A Twisting Tale of Survival

56 pp. | Capstone/Stone Arch | January, 2016 | Library ISBN 978-1-4965-2556-7 $24.49 | Paper ISBN 978-1-4965-2562-8 $5.95 | Ebook ISBN 978-1-4965-2566-6
(4) 4-6 Survive! series. Illustrated by Kirbi Fagan. Each formulaic standalone story finds children navigating seemingly impossible disaster situations: for example, twins Andy and Tony mistake the eye of a tornado for its aftermath and a dormant volcano erupts during Cam's family's Hawaiian vacation. Rapid pacing, vividly rendered scenes, and clever protagonists make for heart-stopping adventures. Serviceable black-and-white illustrations break up the short texts. Back matter includes related survival tips. Glos. Review covers the following Survive! titles: Blizzard, Lost, Tornado, and Volcano.
