Publisher's summary

Dive into the most mysterious waters around the world (if you dare) in Spooky Lakes, a must-listen nonfiction book from TikTok star and educator Geo Rutherford

Some of Earth's strangest-and creepiest-wonders lie deep below the surface. There's Lake Natron, a Tanzanian lake so briny that its waters can mummify any creature that touches its surface; Lake Maracaibo, a Venezuelan tidal bay where a constantly brewing storm sends an average of twenty-eight lightning bolts per second into the water; and at the bottom of Lake Superior, the crew of the USS Kamloops-which mysteriously disappeared in 1921-remains somehow almost perfectly preserved to this day.

From Geo Rutherford-the creator of the hit series Spooky Lake Month (over sixty-five million likes!)-comes this thrilling nonfiction book that plumbs the depths of twenty-five unusual lakes around the world. Listeners will learn not only about the science of hydrology, but why understanding the natural world is crucial to protecting it from pollution and climate change. Backed by extensive research and packed with all-new content, Spooky Lakes takes listeners on an adventure through weird and wild waters.

Such a great researcher/author!

A great reading of her colorful book! A few edits to the recording are needed. I would love to volunteer to send notes, tell me how I can help!

Loved it. Buying the physical copy as well.

I'm listening both as for my own enjoyment and as a spooky treat while I drift to sleep.

Uhm, yes, hello...there are a few sound/recording issues

This author is wonderful and I love her work! There are some sound/recording issues, but I still enjoyed being read a picture book. If you are familiar with this author and their content on social media, you'll be delighted to hear her tell you about some of the spookiest of lakes.

LOVE THIS!

Geo did a great job. I will say who ever edited this story missed a few moments that probably needed to be edited out or around. A few times she’d start over and re read a sentence and it was clear that wasn’t supposed to be there. Not Geos fault though so all 5 stars for her!

10/10 Spookies

Is it weird to be proud of a complete strangers accomplishment of publishing such a fantastic book? Color me weird, then. Loved listening to the segments with my kids. We love science but are bad at science. The fusion of art and what feels like oral history mixed with science created a great gateway for us to learn more about our unique environments and their histories!

Excellent Audiobook, except....

The audiobook itself is awesome and wonderful - but you kind of need the actual book to be able to appreciate the art that Geo created herself, and to understand when the sidenotes come about.
