Bruce Nelson, Sue Ruff, and their friends were enjoying a peaceful camping trip when the world literally exploded around them. The Mount St. Helens volcano erupted just 14 miles from their campsite, spraying them with hot ash, boulders, and trees. Read about how Sue and Bruce survived their ordeal and got help for their hurt friends.
On the morning of March 18, 1980, Mount St. Helens, in Skamania County, Washington, exploded. This is the story of Susan Ruff and Bruce Nelson, two young campers, who suddenly found their idyllic vacation turned into a battle for survival. This wonderful little book is part of the Edge Books: True Tales of Survival series. Intended for younger readers, it tells the story of Susan Ruff and Bruce Nelson in a compelling manner. Plus, along the way, the reader is treated to many interesting color pictures. I must say that this is quite a good book, one that is sure to please any reader who is fascinated with stories of disaster and survival. I give this book two thumbs up!
