Synopsis

From thunderstorms to drought, it is an eye-opening introduction to the way weather works, the science of predicting the weather, and the changing nature of the global climate.

Day-to-day changes in nature affect our lives in all sorts of ways. We choose what to wear according to the weather. We might have to change our plans because a flood or snow has brought transportation to a halt. Farm crops thrive because of rain. Many of the towns and cities we live in are beside rivers and lakes that were created by rain. Wind-driven waves shaped our coastlines.This fascinating guide to the weird and wonderful world of the weather combines fact-packed, easy-to-read text with colorful and quirky illustrations.
