Asha and Baz Meet Katia Krafft (Volume 4) (Asha and Baz, 4)
A charming STEM chapter book introducing young readers to inspiring real-life science, scientists, and history. Highly recommended—and if you don’t have the series yet, purchase the collection." 9 Standout Early Readers and Chapter Books | School Library Journal 2024 Stars So Far
In the fourth book in the Asha and Baz series, readers learn about volcanoes from renowned volcanologist Katia Kraft!
Asha wants to win a super cool volcanic rock by solving the Great Volcano Challenge at school. So she and her best friend Baz use their magic stick to travel to Iceland in 1973 to learn from famous volcano researcher Katia Krafft.
She's sure to be able to help them with their project, but she's got an eruption to observe and data to record―and ash, lava, and smelly gases are a lot more scary than a classroom. With safety concerns rising, Asha and Baz will need to keep their cool to get back home and win the prize.

Review
"Clear and simple information, as well as illustrations, help young readers learn the facts and science along with the titular duo. Rich descriptions tell what volcanoes look like and bring the story to life. Those new to the series will still be able to follow the plot, as a brief summary is provided at the beginning about where the magic stick came from, and where Asha and Baz have traveled before. Patel’s gray-scale, cartoonlike illustrations follow the young adventurers through the story. Back matter includes volcano facts, discussion points, and how to do your own Great Volcano Challenge." -- 6 STEM titles for new readers | Transitional Spotlight ― School Library Journal
