It is expected that by the illustrations through visual images and combined with the narrative the interest of students, especially children can be more aroused so that the information presented can be more quickly captured and understood. The design of an encyclopedic book illustration that is useful as a support for Social Science lessons themed on natural disasters, especially erupting mountains.
