"Feel the Wind" is a great tool for teaching children about the wind and the weather. Arthur Dorros defines wind and its uses in a way that children can easily understand. The book includes the causes of wind, ways wind is used by man and nature, and easy directions for making a weather vane. This book is a must for any young meterorologist.

Primary grade scientists will study all about the wind and how it's made when hot and cold air interact, and how the wind can be harnessed to help us and how it can wear down even the strongest rocks by erosion.

Simple directions for making a weather vane are also included. (Younger children will require assistance.)

Young readers will adore this book.

Questions about the wind have been big this spring in my house, and honestly, I couldn't give my 4 year old an answer. This book supplies the answer. Now I can say, "It's when hot air and cold air change places," and he's happy. Great pictures. Great concepts. Talks about things they can relate to. It holds their attention very well.

This is a great book for teaching elementary students about the weather. The text is complimented by the inviting illustrations. It is a delightful book!
