I received this kindle book on my android kindle reader app. It opened without issue and was formatted fine.First, let me say, this is not an in depth book. While the photos are great and relevant, one or two sentences which introduce new words and weather principles left us hanging. For example – “A water spout is an intense columnar vortex” – wait. What is a columnar vortex? What causes a water spout? What is affected by a water spout? How long do they last? These were actual questions from my kiddo.Most of the weather events discussed in this book are common knowledge, with a little bit of lengthy sciency words thrown in. Do I need a book to explain what an ice storm is? No. But I’d sure like one to explain the science behind how they happen, where, how frequently, what happens to places they hit…This may be good for a much younger child, if it weren’t for the super long words without explanations.I received this book for free in exchange for my honest review.

First, I must praise this book for such great pictures! I love books on weather, and for a children's book, this was beautifully done! This ebook is definitely designed with children in mind. It offers a quick and easy read on all things weather, and offers pictures of real weather conditions, to help the child understand each weather system. Each weather system portrayed, gives a picture, and a description of what each condition is.For example, "An ice storm is a type of winter storm characterized by freezing rain. The freezing rain from an ice storm covers everything with heavy, smooth glaze ice." Very simple and to the point. If you are looking for a fast weather system book, this is the ebook for you.I received this ebook for free or a discounted price to offer my honest opinion concerning this ebook. My review is based on my personal trial of this ebook. I understand the importance of an honest review to help other consumers make an educated purchase. I hope you have found my review helpful.
A book for kids about weather. I am not fond of this publisher due to some really badly written and editedbooks in the past. This one has a few editing issues, but not as bad as most. I think there could have beenmore detail about each of the severe weather issues like wind speed and if it snows during a blizzard. I thinkleaving out the snow in a blizzard was a bit crazy. There is either ice or snow in a blizzard, mostly peoplethink of snow when they think of blizzards. It might also have been nice to mention the results of some ofthese things. (Like damage from a tornado or hurricane) I live in an area that gets daily thunder and lighteningduring a lot of the year and I do not consider either to be severe weather unless there is a hurricane ortornado coming with it. I have been living here many years and when I went away to college where there wereno real thunderstorms I was homesick! I sleep through some really loud and violent storms so my neighborstell me, and so do my dogs. It is something newcomers sometimes cannot get used to. We are taught fromvery young childhood about the dangers of lightening and what to do and not do. The book was too briefand not entirely factual. The pictures were fairly good, but there were no descriptions. I do not know if a childseeing a beach and a thermometer would get the idea presented. My 8 year old did, but he reads on a collegelevel and found the book to be for "babies." My older kids thought it too simplistic and that it did not giveenough information. They laughed at thunderstorms being severe weather since they were all born in thisclimate and one was actually born when there was a hurricane coming and the power went out. We sometimessit on the porch or at a window and watch the storms much as I did with my father many years ago.I received this book free in exchange for my honest review.
