I chose this book, because my class is studying weather right now in Science. I thought this book would be great to read to them so they could learn about this fascinating, but very dangerous type of weather. The students love reading about all the dangerous weather types especially the hurricanes and tornadoes. They really enjoyed learning about lightning as well!
I found this book to be very informative. I never knew there were different types of lightning. I just figured lightning was lightning and that was it, but I was very wrong! The book lets us know that lightning is very dangerous and hot. Lightning travels very fast and if you see lightning you should take cover and not stay outside if you can help it.
This book would be great to use during a weather unit. It is a great book to read as a class, but young elementary kids would have no problems reading this to themselves. The book has some amazing pictures of lightning and is filled with information. The kids will stay focused while you are reading the book and will get very excited when you show them the awesome pictures!
