“I’m a Volcano” is the second book in the “Science Buddies” series by Bridget Heos. A non-fiction picture book about volcanoes, this book falls somewhere in between the early reader non-fiction and the middle grade non-fiction categories. The illustrations are hilarious and there is good information, but it is a bit too wordy for younger children and a bit too short for older kids. Includes a glossary and suggested further reading. Aimed at kids 6-9 years old, this book is good, but not a must-buy for a library collection.
