Weather

A great factual book that is divided into sections or chapters, starts with a contents page, ends with an Index and also has a Glossary and for more information sections. The facts included in it range from scientific information through animals and survival to folklore and inventors. It is beautifully illustrated with appropriate images and photographs. All the facts are numbered and, at intervals, there are even quizzes to have a go at.

This book is very well presented and well organised for use, encouraging the reader to explore further to discover more about this fascinating topic. Definitely an interesting book to explore and that is likely to appeal to a wide range of readers.

I was given a copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I can honestly say that I really enjoyed reading this book, there were many fun and informative facts, quizzes and ways that you could actually get involved in experiments. This is combined with excellent quality photographs which demonstrate clearly the different aspects of weather, all of which are covered in really good fact size chunks. I feel that this book would be a delight to both children and adults alike, I learnt from it! For me it was an excellent reminder of what you learn at school that tends to be lost from your day to day memory. Its a lovely book, highly recommended.

This book of weather facts is suitable for elementary and middle school age children. It is full of facts on a very wide variety of weather related topics like seasons, types of clouds, hurricanes, hail, rainbows, auroras and myths and legends about weather, this book is sure to appeal to people of all ages. My five year old was engaged and I even learned a thing or two. The photos and drawings are wonderful! There are quizzes, funny facts, a glossary and an index.

Aimed at 3rd-5th graders, this book provides a good overview of weather facts. From generalities like "The reason we have seasons" and "What is weather?" to information specific to locations or types of weather "black ice is not really black", the book is broad but shallow - exactly as it should be for that age group. The photos and pictures are great! Kids will stop to see the red lightening, a truck half in a snow drift and the satellite photo of a hurricane.

This book takes bite sized chunks of information about weather and turns it into 100 cool facts that are interesting for children. Each numbered fact is written in its own text box and well illustrated making the concepts understandable for children. This would be the perfect book to help children learn more about meteorology.
