Wild weather

written by Liz Gogerly ; illustrated by Sr. Sanchez

This funkily illustrated title explores all types of weather with four children Anjali, Lulu, Mason and Noah. Their teacher, Mr Sangar, explains that weather is about what's happening in the atmosphere. And, there are six major things going on up there that are constantly changing and making our weather. Mason's dad explains the water cycle to them. They experience all types of weather, from rain, snow, sleet, hail and see some fantastic rainbows too. They learn about extreme weather, such as floods, hurricanes and typhoons and find out how to identify different types of cloud and lightning and make rain gauges to record the amount of rain they get in a week. They discover the different climate zones and get serious about climate change and global warming
