Spencer presents an interesting look at how meteorologists analyze data and predict the weather. Kids will learn about various methods used for collecting information, along with much about the weather itself. Illustrations by Srimalie Bassani add to the fun. The book ends with some projects and experiments kids can try.

This was a well done and informative book for kids on weather and how/why it happens that was written by a meteorologist. I liked the “recipes” for how to create your own weather events included in the book.
Thanks to the author and publisher for the e-arc I received via NetGalley.

How Do Meteorologists Predict the Future? is a very colorful, well illustrated, and informative book about meteorology. As a parent, I did feel like the writing was trying too hard to be "cool" and relatable to kids. I would prefer a more concise delivery. The content was a bit much for my first grader, but I think this would be a great fit for upper elementary or middle schoolers with an interest in weather and meteorology.
Thank you to Flowerpot Press for gifting me with an ARC to review! All opinions are my own.

Nonfiction written by a real broadcast meteorologist in a way that all of us can understand! Important concepts and factual information about how meteorologists gather the information they need to help predict weather locally and more. It is filled with definitions and there are simple learning activities following a simple glossary.
The illustrations by Srimalie Bassani are fun, complex, clear, colorful, and delightful.
Well suited for reading WITH someone of any age including ESL, and great for gifting to anyone, but especially to a school or your local public library!
I requested and received a free temporary e-book on Adobe Digital Editions from Flowerpot Press via NetGalley. Thank you!
