This informative book on Canada's winter weather is filled with fun facts and simplified, yet complete explanations of atmospheric phenomena. Its great diagrams, tips and life advice, true images of weather occurring across the country, mixed with statistics on many of Canada's great storms will have kids quoting from it and maybe watching the weather around them to identify patterns. Very good as a project research starter. Snow and Ice will spark the curiosity of students and give them many directions to follow.
