Editorial Review

Each book has full-color pages with photographs and a few diagrams showing weather concepts. Many of the pages ask the reader a question, some of which are answered on the following pages, others ask the reader to draw on their experience and preferences. There are notebook insets with attention-catching facts and boxes with a fact related to the photograph and/or a question. A Science Lab page suggests a follow-up activity that children can do independently. Links on the publisher’s website lead to outside sources, though some are for older children. However, there is a great deal of information at the site, including crossword puzzles and experiments that would be especially helpful when using the series with multi-age classrooms. Bibliography. Glossary. Websites. Table of Contents. Index. Recommended.
