Description
Most of the time, water is a good thing. However, too much water can be a very dangerous thing. Floods are deadly. Every year, thousands of people around the world are killed or injured in floods.

It is important to learn all you can about floods so you will know how to deal with this devastating disaster. This title will allow students to describe the overall structure (e.g., chronology, comparison, cause/effect, problem/solution) of events, ideas, concepts, or information in a text or part of a text. • Bolded keywords • Text based questions • Content Sidebars • Disaster guide
