Weather isn't climate, but you need one for the other

When I was in the fourth grade my teacher in our country two room school house got a Kit for weather science. We learned about things like temperature, pressure , wind speed and humidity. I think it is important for young students to know that science deals with the everyday as well as the cosmic and particle physics. This book is one I would give to a child in my family hoping they would enjoy and learn from it. With global warming in their future learning this kind of science can be an important thing. Old people like me feel extremes in pressure change for big storms in their "bones". I suppose that feeling of dread about the future I, now, feel is something like that?
