This is a nice little^* book. I felt the blurb on the back says everything I wanted to say about it.

Packed with surprising facts, this delightful and gorgeously designed book will beguile anyone who is curious about weather. Expertly written and beautifully illustrated throughout with colour photographs and original colour artwork, ‘The Little Book of Weather’ is an accessible and enjoyable mini reference on the world’s weather, with examples drawn from across the globe. It fits an astonishing amount of information in a small package, covering a wide range of topics – from weather forecasting and extreme events such as hurricanes and typhoons to climate change and the future of weather. It also includes curious facts, myths, and history – from whether animals can predict the weather to the wintry conditions that helped to sabotage Napoleon and Hitler’s invasions of Russia. The result is an irresistible guide to the amazing world of weather.
