Reviews
In 1989, the Exxon Valdez, the largest American built oil tanker, ripped open its tanks while passing over the Bligh Reef in Alaska's Prince William Sound. More than eleven million gallons of crude oil escaped into the water, marking the worst oil spill in history. This information and much more is revealed in this "Disaster!" series book. Readers will learn about the Valdez's design, its ruptured hull (main body of the ship), the evaluation of the accident, and the lessons learned from it. Details are given about the tragic loss of wildlife and the billions of dollars spent on cleaning up the spilled oil. New laws to help prevent environmental tragedies like this are discussed. And, a glossary, index, resource list, and biography invite the reader to engage in future studies. Teachers will find this text with powerful photographs to be a good starting point for lessons in persuasive argument and debate. 2003, Capstone Press, $21.26. Ages 7 to 10.
