If my textbooks had been illustrated like this, I would have read more of them 😂
#ThunderandLightening A wonderfully colourful graphic book about how the weather affects our lives ☀️⚡️❄️ #weather #meteorology #graphicnovel #elements
pickThis is a really interesting book. The illustrations are amazing and full page. Text, font created by the author, is laid over the illustrations. There's interviews and stories to help describe weather. There's a lot of good information here. #libraryreads #readwomen
These drawings are amazing. #libraryreads #readwomen
Wednesday weather was not nice. My arm is in a sling & feeling foolish. In a flash, I fell behind (literally) on #hpchapteraday
Today was mostly a wash after dealing with some alcohol poisoning 😖 but I did manage to go out just now and exchange a present at a local indie for this beaut. I was going to read it through OverDrive, but after seeing it in person, how could I resist? This and an Amazon gift card are the extent of my #bookishgifts...I think my loved ones know that I'm better off just buying for myself 😊 #SeasonsReadings2016 #embossedcoversOMG
Lauren Redniss won a MacArthur Genius Grant earlier this year and her beautiful visual experiment in science, art, and history made it onto our picks for the year's best! THUNDER & LIGHTNING is a masterful product of research, curiosity, and passion. #laurenredniss #2016giftguide #thunderandlightning #books
Really cool, really peculiar book. Beautiful.
This is Max's 'WTF!?! I don't like thunder!!' face. Just had 30 minutes of the brightest lightening & thunder that sounded like explosions and even shook the house. I don't mind the occasional thunderstorm but this one was way too loud and close. It seems to have passed but now it's 12:30 AM & I'm wide awake... Guess I better read. 😬
"I hoped to [...] capture a certain feeling - a sensation of strangeness, wonder, terror - that we experience in the presence of nature, most powerfully perhaps when encountering the forces of the elements: a howling wind, a thunderstorm, the beating sun."

pickGorgeous graphic nonfiction book about the science of weather and how it has shaped our cultures, history & lifestyles throughout the world, as well as how we've tried to control, use & predict it. BEAUTIFUL art & talented writer that seamlessly blends story, art & examples from every continent. ⛈ #ReadWomen
