This book is an excellent introduction to the basics of meteorology. It has a good cloud atlas and is full of simple experiments to illustrate physics theory

Disappointing experiments 30 Jan 2010
By Ilene Witt - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This series of books has a major problem with the experiments. I purchased the entire set to use for home schooling, and when I started doing the experiments with my son ran into a lot of problems quickly. I took the books to a local science shop and they identified that many of the experiments were missing important components. An example: one experiment in one of the books showed how to make a battery using pennies, litmus paper and lemon juice. The battery never worked. According to the local science shop it never would work without some zinc. This was information was ommitted from the book. I found using these books to be very frustrating and wouldn't recommend them to others. However, I do have friends who like them a lot. So, I guess it is just a matter of opinion.

good for many ages 19 Jan 2010
By onlineShopper - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is great for ideas to do experiments with your kids. There are easy and harder experiments (you can do part of the set up for younger children and let older children do it all). I do wish there was a little more explanation of some the background science specifics. This copy was in great shape even though it says good it looks great with minimal wear.

AMAZING! 7 Mar 2010
By Natalie - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I've loved this book since I was a little girl, checking it out at my local library. I was happy to see it on Amazon and had to buy it. This book will teach you a lot about weather.
