We might like to think we are protected from natural disaster by hundreds of years of learning about forecasting, structural engineering, and good agriculture practices, but sometimes all that knowledge isn't enough to save us from ourselves. In Earth, Wind, Fire, and Rain: Real Tales of Temperamental Elements, kids ages 10 to 13 learn about tragic events that might not have been as bad without the added ingredient of human error. Another installment in the Mystery and Mayhem series, which combines hair-raising, real-life mysteries for kids with primary sources and rich language.
