An Island Grows by Lola M Schaefer



From the first glow of magma at the bottom of the ocean, to the flowing lava that hardens and builds up higher and higher until it breaks through the water's surface, here is the story of the birth of an island. As the island matures, signs of life appear: first, small plants and animals, and later, people. This is a tale as old--and as new--as the ground we walk on, and it has been illustrated with gorgeous collage art. Includes an endnote detailing how volcanic islands form and a list of recommended reading.
