In "Floods" by Mark A. Maslin, readers are drawn into a gripping tale that explores the catastrophic impacts of climate change through a series of devastating floods. The story follows a diverse group of characters whose lives intersect as they navigate the challenges brought on by rising sea levels and extreme weather events. As they confront their fears and fight for survival, themes of resilience, community, and the urgency of environmental action emerge. The narrative serves as both a cautionary tale and a call to arms, urging readers to recognize the imminent threats posed by climate change and the need for collective action.

Restless Planet

The books are clearly written and well illustrated with maps, diagrams and photographs.What is most impressive about this series, however, is the use it makes of newspaper reports, eyewitness accounts and photographs to bring home the human dimensions of each of these natural phenomena. - Children's Books in Ireland, Winter 2000
