Booklist Review

Weather isn't so scary once you understand it! Bel is fond of saying. Bel, who learned about weather from her meteorologist mom, is more than eager to reassure her cousin Dylan when he gets nervous about storms. The fictional narrative and playful cartoon illustrations frame facts about storms and weather phenomenon. The duo is at school in A Snowstorm Shows Off, and Bel explains to her class how regular snowstorms can evolve into a more dramatic blizzard. Each volume ends with an activity, giving kids a kinetic approach to the weather. The facts here are basic, and the narrative spin and clean-lined, easy-to-follow illustrations make this a solid series for younger readers.--Reagan, Maggie Copyright 2016 Booklist
