Weather
Jill McDonald
- Reading
- Read it while looking out of a window or after stepping outside. Invite your child to compare today’s conditions with the pictures, then follow their interest in clothing or seasonal changes.
- Themes
- Weather and seasons: The book follows seasonal changes in a backyard, including flowers and a playing puppy in summer, snow on the same yard, and clothes moving on a windy day. Weather is presented through concrete outdoor examples, paired with simple facts and invitations to notice conditions.
- Clothing for different conditions: Children are shown or invited to identify clothing associated with different weather, including mittens, hats and rain boots. The book links weather to practical clothing choices through pictures and examples.
- Worth knowing
- This is an introductory treatment rather than a detailed account of weather science. The facts are presented in simple terms alongside bright illustrations and everyday examples.
