Disaster Strikes #1 Earthquake Shock by Marlane Kennedy*

A new series!
Ten year old Joey and his friends were spending a typical day in the Los Angeles skate park.  An earthquake comes suddenly, requiring Joey to think quickly and grow up in an instant.
Very exciting.  The author depicts the devastation and the aftermath well.  Not based on a real earthquake.
Pair with the I Survived by Lauren Tarshis.
*Highly recommend.
Guided Reading Level: Q (4th grade)
More in series:
