It’s Raining Fish and Spiders covers every weather phenomenon from tornadoes to the different kinds of snowflakes. Weather myths and facts, from “Can it really rain fish?” to “Will opening a window save my house during a tornado?” are addressed along with personal anecdotes about Evan’s experiences. He has flown with the Hurricane Hunters and chased tornadoes in Tornado Alley.

Along with the fascinating stories and facts, the book has simple weather experiments that can be performed at home without expensive equipment. If you have a student that is interested in weather, science, and the natural world, or if you are an adult with those interests, this is the book for you. Highly recommended. ~~ Stephanie L Bannon
