It describes cold fronts (when cold air pushes against warm air) and the types of weather they cause. It also describes warm fronts (when warm air pushes against cold air) and the type of weather we can expect when a warm front comes in. It describes the kinds of things that meteorologists do to try to predict the weather, like assessingtemperature, wind direction, and air pressure. This book is ideal for ages 5 to 9.

This beautiful storybook shows water in all of the various forms it takes as it goes through the water cycle. For example, water iswater, until it heats up and becomes steam. And steam is steam unless it cools down at a high elevation and becomes a cloud. And a cloud is a cloud unless it sits on the ground as fog. So on and so on the story continues through rain, puddles, ice, and snow. This book will be appreciatedby kids ages 4 and 10 for its beautiful illustrations. Kids on the younger end of the age range will enjoy the introduction tothe different forms water takes, while older children who are already familiar with the water cycle will recognize how water is being cycled throughout the story, even though the term “water cycle” is never explicitly mentioned.

Some books are more focused on photography and illustrations with short snips of text while others are more text-heavy with a few pictures strewn throughout.
