This book is AMAZING. It organizes all the information the meteorologists and climatologists use through infographics, so it's easier for the reader to understand. Very interesting and fun to read. Highly recommend. You will learn a lot of new things you didn't know about before.

Mostly solid except for one slightly confusing spread about the water cycle.
