Rumble and Roar: Sound around the World

Sue Fliess

Four children living in different parts of the world enjoy sounds in nature. A roaring waterfall, chirping insects, and a thumping heartbeat are among the sounds they notice. These sounds make up an audible natural world that surrounds the children wherever they live. Mixed-media illustrations accompany these encounters, and the back matter contains scientific information about sound and the natural world.
