Weather

By Seymour Simon

Book Overview

Feel the warmth of a summer day; look at falling snow; listen to distant thunder. Weather is all around us, always changing all the time. Dazzling photos enhance this clear introduction to the many faces of this powerful force of nature."In this well-designed 'photo-book,' Simon takes a careful look at the weather--what it is, what causes it, and what affects it. Simple, direct explanations of the atmosphere, cold and warm fronts, and the formation of snow and hail are beautifully complemented by full- and half-page color photographs and diagrams....Solid, useful, and accessible, this is a very valuable 40 pages."--Booklist.

Great Nonfiction for Children

I love the books by Seymour Simon. As a teacher I am always looking for nonfiction books that are not too difficult for elementary school children. The books always have accurate information and colorful photographs. My students ask for these books daily. I highly recommend these to other teachers and parents.
