I love it. I received only a few days ago and I already finished it. I must read it again and again. It is well written in an easy style accessible to all and nicely illustrated. The contents seem to be more science fiction thatn science facts, they are so incredible. I love it as I already wrote and you willl too. Don't wait, buy it now. Amazon.com can ship it in a record time and the price is excellent value for money for this highly entertaining book.

I found this book to be quite facinating, and very well written. It should be a must read for anyone interested in the subject of science and weather. This book covers all sorts of anomalies of weather and nature from 'frogs rains' to tornadoes, thunderstorms and sun spots! All sorts of interesting bits of information are compiled here, that make it a page-turning read from start to finish. There is great information about comets and stars and all sorts of oddities of the heavens as well. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The information is conveyed intelligently, but with an undercoat of wit and humor. You will really enjoy this one!

Frogs falling from the sky? Balls of light zipping around mastheads of ships? This surprisingly non-technical book explains the theories and facts behind strange phenomena of the sky. Illustrators, take not, as well. Glenn Wolff's illustrations bring this book to life and make it a wonderful addition to everyone's coffee table

This book is a must read for anyone intrigued by natural phenomena relating to all sorts of things including "why birds don't fall off tree branches when they sleep". This book is much more than weather and sky. It is one that you will pick up and read again and again. I heartily recommend it. Get yours today! Makes a nice Christmas gift too!

This is an enjoyable book, with a lot of interesting information. It also has many small scientific errors that a professional scientist would never make - almost every page has some small error of wording or description. I'm just a layman, so I don't know what a professional would find. There is enough new and interesting material to far outweigh the errors, but you should not assume that everything you find here is repeatable as truth.
