Overview
I Survived: True Survivors explores high-danger nonfiction topics through the eyes of real kids who lived to tell their stories! In 1816 Vermont, John Hoisington and his family were starving. What John couldn't have imagined was that his hunger began with a volcano 10,000 miles away...
Snowstorms in winter weren't a big deal in John Hoisington's Vermont town. But a snowstorm in June? That was disastrous. It killed his family's crops and soon they were starving. But the Hoisingtons weren't the only ones experiencing strange weather. For a few years after 1815, people around the world faced odd droughts, floods, and frosts. Why? The answer wouldn't be known for 200 years.
Today, scientists understand that while the 1815 eruption of Mount Tambora in Indonesia instantly killed 12,000 people, its weather effects around the world led to far more deaths -- almost 30 million. Who was affected around the world? And how did John's family survive?
With cliff-hangers at the end of every chapter, illustrations on every page, more photos and facts at the back, and a short word count to hold kids' attention, this narrative nonfiction chapter book is perfect for fans of the I Survived historical fiction chapter books, young readers interested in nature and STEM topics, and anyone who enjoys high-action stories of danger, survival, and hope.
