Kids will learn the difference between a tornado and a hurricane in the fact-filled rhyming audiobook.

Meteorologists use an anemometer to measure wind speed. Back in the early 1800s, Sir Francis Beaufort, a British admiral, designed a scale to measure wind speed.

Kids will learn about the important tools a meteorologist uses to predict the weather in this fun, rhyming audiobook.

If you are fascinated with thunderstorms, cloud formations, tornados, and windy weather, you might be interested in becoming a meteorologist.

Thunder is the noise made by lightning. Lightning and thunder happen at the same time, but have you ever noticed that you will see lightning before you hear thunder?

Fall brings cooler weather and in autumn there are shorter days. The leaves change from green to orange, red, and purple, until they start falling to the ground.

The water cycle is like a circle.

We have four different seasons because the Earth is tipped as it rotates around the sun.

Did you know that a meteorologist is a special scientist that predicts the weather? A meteorologist measures how fast the wind is blowing, measures the humidity in the air, and provides information about warm fronts and cold fronts.

Have you ever lay down on the grass to look up into the sky at the clouds? Did you know that clouds are made up of tiny droplets of water?

In Firmament, atmospheric scientist and science communicator Simon Clark offers a rare and accessible tour of the ins and outs of the atmosphere and how we know what we know about it. From the workings of its different layers to why carbon dioxide is special, from pioneers like Pascal to the unsung heroes working in the field to help us understand climate change, Firmament introduces us to an oft-overlooked area of science and not only lays the ground work for us to better understand the debates surrounding the climate today.

Joanne Baldwin is a Weather Warden. Usually, all it takes is a wave of her hand to tame the most violent weather. But now, she's trying to outrun another kind of storm: accusations of corruption and murder. So, she's resorting to the very human tactic of running for her life....

A comprehensive catalog of the most devastating and deadly events-natural or man-made-in human history. If you follow the news it can seem like injury, sickness, and death are now constant, inescapable occurrences that threaten us every second of every day. But such catastrophic events - as terrible and frightening as they are - have been happening for as long as mankind has walked the Earth.... and even before. From ancient volcanoes and floods to epidemics of cholera and smallpox to Hitler's mass killings in the 20th century, humanity's continued existence has always seemed perilous.
