Review by Booklist Review

Much like the other subsets, these volumes in the A True Book: Earth Science series are models of introducing a broad range of topics while still being concise and graphically pleasing to boot. Each book boasts a layout that never feels the least bit lazy and is kept fresh with sharp pictures, fun time lines, and breakout sections isolating the most dazzling of subtopics. Meteorology has lots of weapons to keep interest: Tornadoes! Blizzards! Lightning! But the most fascinating side-trip involves the long-kept secret of The Old Farmer's Almanac. A bright, appealing package perfect for writing reports or for following individual interests.--Kraus, Daniel Copyright 2010 Booklist
