| In The Case of the
Shaky Quake, the tree house detectives feel a strange tremor
and begin to think that an earthquake has occurred. The detectives
set out to investigate plate tectonics and earthquakes. As
they begin the investigative process, the detectives get a
little help from Michael Lyle, a seismologist at Tidewater
Community College in Virginia Beach, Virginia, Heidi Stenner
of the United States Geological Society (USGS) and David Whitman
at the National Dinosaur Monument in Utah. The detectives
also visit Dr. Carol Tang at the California Academy of Sciences
to "experience" an earthquake. Mr. Ron Baalke and
Dr. Andrea Donnellan at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL)
help the detectives come to an amazing discovery as they realize
that plate movement is not the only thing that makes the Earth
tremble. Johnny Alonzo who plays in Dawson's Creek, is the
celebrity guest for the The Case of the Shaky Quake. |
