Heather and the Stormy Birthday
The Kane Press (Verlag)
978-1-6626-7062-6 (ISBN)
Heather Whirl is fascinated by the weather! With eyes that change colour in reaction to rain, wind or heat, Heather would like to be a meteorologist or a climate scientist when she grows up. When Heather turns eight, her eccentric great-grandmother gives her a family heirloom--an umbrella that can teleport her to areas experiencing wild weather conditions. Heather's umbrella has a built-in magical doppler that alerts her to wild weather happening somewhere. In the blink of an eye, Heather travels to the middle of a superstorm! Heather is thrown into the deep end of the impact of extreme weather in habitats she has never seen before. She lends a helping hand to the community and habitat she has visited while documenting her adventures with her friend Edward and animal companions Fog the dog and a lizard named Blizzard.
Her journal entries, notes from her helpers, definitions, and activities provide additional information for the curious reader.
