Features: "Weather Changes! Changes! Changes!" brings you knowledge about mysterious weather, interesting phenomena, and 24 topics about rainy and sunny days. The book also teaches you how to make a barometer with balloons, calculate temperature by counting cricket chirps, and predict whether groundhogs can reliably forecast winter weather, among other things. It also describes human-induced factors that affect weather—such as the greenhouse effect caused by pollution, ozone layer depletion, and acid rain—and tells children how they can help solve these problems. From massive thunderclouds to body temperature thermometers, from howling winds to weather on other planets, the book covers a wealth of scientific knowledge.
