| 520 | |a "Some of Earth's strangest-and creepiest-wonders lie deep below the surface. There's Lake Natron, a Tanzanian lake so briny that its waters can mummify any creature that touches its surface; Lake Maracaibo, a Venezuelan tidal bay where a constantly brewing storm sends an average of 28 lightning bolts per second into the water; and at the bottom of Lake Superior, the crew of the USS Kamloops-which mysteriously disappeared in 1921-remains somehow almost perfectly preserved to this day. From TikTok sensation and educator Geo Rutherford-the creator of the hit series "Spooky Lake Month" (over 65 million views!)-comes a thrilling nonfiction book that plumbs the depths of unusual lakes around the world. Middle-grade readers will learn not only about the science of hydrology, but why understanding the natural world is crucial to protecting it from pollution and climate change.
