Product Information
This book introduces children to nature at its most powerful, showing not only the damage that hurricanes and tornadoes can inflict on people and property, but also ways in which we are able to forecast weather to minimise damage. It begins with an introduction describing the forces of nature, how they begin and what makes them grow stronger. The book then goes on to show how and where disasters occur, other weather phenomena associated with the same natural forces and how we track and respond to them. There are also facts included for example: pieces of straw can be fired like darts, into tree trunks by a tornado.Product Identifiers
