Reviews
Rangitoto – This book is so good that I want to stand in the street waving copies and shouting, ‘Buy it!’ After a lifetime in schools and libraries, I know a good non-fiction book when I see it. Rangitoto is not just good; it’s excellent.
There are plenty of books about volcanoes; what sets Rangitoto apart is its attractive approach and versatility. Maria Gill’s text has a simple narrative running along the bottom of each double-page spread. ~ Trevor Agnew, Christchurch
After one of the biggest earthquakes in New Zealand in a number of years, it seems appropriate to revisit volcanoes and earthquakes – one of the most popular subjects for junior members of the library. It is also appropriate as over the last two weeks, local author Maria Gill has been visiting the libraries talking about her new book. ~ Rodney Libraries
This is a superbly illustrated addition to children’s knowledge of the different islands of New Zealand. Volcanism is certainly a favourite science topic (especially when youngsters are encouraged to construct a model) and Rangitoto, being situated near Auckland, would be a significant study for many students. ~ The Free Library
