Reviews

[Addie]

This book is large in size, (14" tall) and filled with photos from edge of page to edge of page, so the pictures are perfect for viewing. It's only 64 pages but it's packed with information about all kinds of weather. Some facts are outdated if you're looking for extremes or latest stats, but if you're using this as a book to understand weather basics, it's perfect.

Read this for the mentoring program I'm in.

A fun and interesting introduction into weather, albeit slightly outdated as it was published in 2000.
