The Wonder Of Thunder: Lessons From A Thunderstorm

Written by Sharon Purtill

Illustrated by Tamara Piper

This is a beautifully crafted rhyming picture book that is informative and entertaining.

Preschool and primary grade readers can enjoy the multicultural images while learning about the types and formation of clouds, the sounds of thunder, how lightning forms and acts, and the benefits of rain and thunderstorms.

For children who are afraid, the book allays their fears and explains the way this weather phenomenon acts on earth. The author makes sure to explain that children need to take cover until the storm passes.

I particularly enjoyed the comprehension questions and the fact sheet included so that readers may reread and absorb all the information presented.

Highly recommended for parents and teachers to place on their bookshelves.
