“Climate change makes these topics all the more important for young readers as these titles explain what is happening around them. These are intentionally easy to read and use a visual glossary in the back matter to drive home keywords. These titles introduce extreme weather concepts in a way that is familiar, visually interesting, and does not frighten young readers.” —School Library Journal
