Tsunami!

What Causes a Tsunami?
What is a tsunami? How
does it form? Let’s take a look
at the 2004 tsunami that hit
several parts of Asia. It started
with an earthquake. The quake
pushed water up toward the
surface, and the wave began
moving toward shore. The
wave gathered speed and
soon got closer to land. Then it
slowed down, but at the same
time it grew higher. Last, the
wave hit the shore.
Effects of a Tsunami
A tsunami destroys almost
everything in its path. Waves
crash against the shore and
smash buildings. Whole towns
are destroyed. In the 2004
tsunami, more than 200,000
people died, and many more
were missing. People lost their
homes, their loved ones, and
their farms and stores. A tsunami
is a great disaster.
