    Learn about Sun, Wind and Rain with Whatever the Weather by Little Gestalten
    Have you ever seen a rainbow? Learn more about the weather in Whatever the Weather by Little Gestalten
    Discover the highs and lows of weather in Whatever the Weather by Little Gestalten. Air pressure is the weight of the air pressing on everything around. When air rises and falls, it changes the air pressure at the Earth’s surface—and this changes the weather.
    Winter is tough for many animals. Some species, like grizzly bears, cope by going to sleep until the spring—this is called hibernation. Others, like this wolf, grow a very thick coat of fur. We all have to keep warm in the winter! Whatever the Weather by Little Gestalten tells you all about this.
    Thunderstorms bring strong winds, heavy rain, booming thunder, and bolts of lightning. Thunderclouds are really big and tall, and they can make everything go dark—even in the middle of the day. Learn more about the weather in Whatever the Weather by Little Gestalten
    Seas and oceans have a huge effect on our weather. Warm—water currents carry the Sun’s heat to cold places. Cold—water currents carry cool temperatures to hot places. This stops temperatures on Earth from becoming too extreme—and makes our planet a much friendlier home for humans, plants, and animals! Find out more in Whatever the Weather by Little Gestalten
    Will it be sunny tomorrow? Check the forecast in Whatever the Weather by Little Gestalten.
    Temperatures are rising! When the season changes from winter to spring, it naturally gets warmer. But scientists who study the climate have found that the temperatures on Earth have been rising much too quickly over the past few centuries—this is mostly caused by the things we humans have been doing. The rising temperatures are changing the climate all over the world, and this is changing the weather.

Bursting with colorful illustrations, examples, and anecdotes, this book explains complex processes in a snackable way.
