  The gripping story of volcanologists Maurice and Katia Krafft, perfect for armchair adventurers who loved The Mona Lisa Vanishes and Becoming Muhammad Ali. Complete with stunning illustrations from award-winning illustrator, Katherine Roy, and extensive backmatter for school and at-home conversations. 
  This beautiful biography in verse is about two French scientists who changed what we know about volcanoes. Katia, a curious girl who collected pebbles and dreamed of escaping her small town, grew up just a few miles away from Maurice, a boy who knew more about rocks and minerals than his own teachers. . . . When Katia and Maurice met as college students, they formed The Vulcan Team—named after the Roman god of fire—to observe, investigate, and document one of the most dangerous, natural phenomena on the planet: volcanoes! 
  With dynamic art from award-winning artist Katherine Roy, Chasing Eruptions traces the legacy of Katia and Maurice Kraffts’ volcanic photographs and films—and how their footage continues to inspire and educate today.

  Once upon a time, in a mouse community in the heart of the forest, there arose a concern that echoed through the tiny homes and burrows. The mice were troubled by the stealthy and elusive cat that prowled in the shadows, posing a constant threat to their safety. 
  After a heated discussion during a community gathering, the mice realized they needed a way to be warned of the cat's approach. In their quest for a solution, a wise old mouse named Simon proposed an idea that garnered much attention—a bell should be placed around the cat's neck. This way, the tinkling sound would serve as an early warning, giving the mice ample time to scamper to safety. 
  Excitement filled the air as the mice embraced Simon's suggestion. However, as the discussion progressed, a practical concern arose. Who would bell the cat? The thought of approaching the stealthy feline to attach a bell seemed daunting and perilous. 
  The bravest and most agile mouse in the community, a young and spirited rodent named Oliver, volunteered for the daunting task. The other mice, relieved to have a courageous soul among them, applauded Oliver's bravery.
