Evocative illustrations further bring the text to life in this fascinating introduction to the ever-changing wind.
Author Debra Kempf Shumaker uses figurative language and metaphors to capture the imagination of readers as they learn about wind.

With its easy-to-understand depictions of the types of wind, this is a perfect STEAM pick for lessons on daily and seasonal weather.
