Publisher's Synopsis

Meet the winds of the world in this beautifully illustrated collection of poems from MIT Kids Press.
Journey across the world and discover the many different winds in this enchanting poetic picture book. Meet Italy's swaggering Maestro who sweeps along the coast on hot summer days; join the penguins in Antarctica as the icy Katabatic blusters and blows; and hear the resounding BOOM and CLASH of the Sumatra Squall. Each spread includes scientific information on how each wind is formed, where it blows and the weather systems it heralds. With charming illustrations by an award-winning artist, this is a fascinating picture book to inspire wonder.
