Wow. Nicolas Day is becoming my favorite nonfiction writer. A World Without Summer is brilliant. Somehow he seamlessly is able to connect things in the world that may appear to be unrelated. An 1815 volcano, the writing of Frankenstein, and what is happening in the world today….Seriously!!?? 🤯

★ Nicholas Day and illustrator Yas Imamura “chronicle the story of Mount Tambora’s 1815 volcanic eruption” in their “intense” middle grade nonfiction collaboration, A WORLD WITHOUT SUMMER: A VOLCANO ERUPTS, A CREATURE AWAKENS, AND THE SUN GOES OUT
