What makes a flash flood? How can you stay safe when floodwaters start to rise? Discover Now! MIT Kids presents an exciting "how things work" leveled reader series, tailor-made for the next generation of innovators, scientists, and thinkers.

Did you know that when floodwaters rise very quickly, it's known as a flash flood? Big storms can bring lots of rain, which sometimes causes rivers to overflow and even sweep away cars or wash out roads. But there are some basic steps for staying safe in a flash flood, like keeping away from rivers, avoiding flooded roads, and going to higher ground. For kids who are curious about the world around them comes Discover Now!, a welcoming leveled reader series written by experts and developed with educators on a range of STEM subjects. Each fact-filled nonfiction book begins with an informative note to caregivers and a table of contents, is packed with colorful photos, and ends with a glossary and index. This book is a Level 1 reader, perfect for curious kids who are just starting their reading journey.
