Do you dare visit the Dead Sea?

Why do so many people visit the Dead Sea? Its name alone should scare them off, and the fact that no fish or plants can live in it should chill a person more than a cool dip in the sea on a hot day! This book takes readers to this lake in the Middle East where some truly scary things have happened--like sinkholes opening around its coast! A mix of social studies and science content, the main text is written especially for lower elementary readers with a taste for the scary and touch of wanderlust!.
