v. 10

Part of a series of information books, this book concerns the weather, and explains: how clouds, rain and winds are caused; why we get hurricanes, tornadoes, droughts, monsoons, frost, floods, and of course, thunder and lightning, and how these effects can sometimes be dramatic and destructive. Each book in the series contains a gatefold, which features a scene in worsening weather conditions from a calm, still day to a force 12- hurricane, causing almost total devastation. A fun quiz at the end enables children to test their knowledge.
