Volcano rising

KA-BOOM! Most people think volcanoes are either sound asleep or blowing their tops off in fiery, ash-spewing catastrophes.             But volcanoes are not just destructive. Much more often, volcanoes are creative. They grow taller and wider. They form majestic mountains. And they build new islands where there were none before.
