Read in September, 2011
Heat Wave is an imaginative but realistic picture book about the weather. In the days before air conditioning, a huge heat wave hits the city, and it gets hotter and hotter every day of the week. The art is reminiscent of some of the older newspaper comics, and it has a certain nostalgia to it. It gives children an idea of how people used to deal with the heat before the conveniences of modern technology, and practice with the days of the week. Recommended for grades K-2.
