PreS-Gr 2—This work provides a simplified yet engaging overview of many facets of Mother Nature, including hailstorms, tornados, sandstorms, and hurricanes. Listeners will learn that sandstorms in Australia are called willy-willys and that a hurricane on Jupiter called the Great Red Spot "has been blowing for more than 400 years." The large text, beautiful photographs, and eye-catching titles and captions offer young readers an effective resource on storms. Dion Graham's rich and melodic voice, combined with a sound track of storm sounds, completes the experience.
VERDICT Whether needed for demystifying storms or increasing knowledge, this read-along set is a perfect introduction to the topic.
