More than 70 percent of Earth is covered in water. Yet only about 3 percent of it is freshwater that people can use. Every year, parts of the world suffer through severe droughts, and millions of people don't have easy access to clean drinking water. Why is there a shortage of clean and healthy water? In this nonfiction graphic novel, Max Axion and the Society of Super Scientists travel around the world to learn the reasons behind the global water crisis. Young readers can tag along to discover what causes water scarcity and find out ways they can help preserve this precious resource.
