Recensioner i media

Perron’s accessible STEM-friendly text about meteorological phenomena grounds itself in that quintessential question of childhood: ‘Why?’ . . . A great choice for readers wondering about weather. — The Horn Book MagazineAgainst tightly metered verse by Varchol Perron (All the Rocks We Love), a child gazes up and asks the question, ‘How I wonder, wonder why,/ why are you so blue, big sky?’ The sky itself replies in lines both graceful and scientifically accurate . . . Throughout, spreads contrast crisp edges and washlike textures; in one, Henderson (Evidence!) shows sun rays beaming through layers of Earth’s atmosphere, filtering them to a brilliant blue. — Publishers WeeklyA beautifully illustrated starting point for explorations of weather; by asking more questions than it answers, perhaps it will inspire discussion. — School Library Journal
