Bang : the wild wonders of Earth's phenomena

Smith, Jennifer N. R.2024
Books, Manuscripts
In this follow up to 'Glow', illustrator Jennifer N.R. Smith takes us on a breathtaking tour of the planet's most astonishing natural phenomena - from explosive volcanoes and geysers to dancing lights in the night sky. The Earth may seem solid and stationary but deep beneath its surface it is constantly changing, twisting and transforming. Its unbridled power is what generates surreal natural phenomena and dramatic landscapes, as well as devastating natural disasters. In this illustrated book, young readers will discover the explosive power of volcanoes, a cave filled with giant crystals, a hot spring pool filled with bathing snow monkeys, dinosaurs hidden between layers of rock and an incredible ecosystem that can survive the boiling hot waters around hydrothermal vents, as well as extreme weather and incredible optical phenomena, including auroras, light pillars and sun dogs.
