APPEALS TO: MANY

A few children are watching the heavy gray clouds wishing for snow to flurry, float, and fly. The cold, wind, dust, and vapor work together to create something grand. High in the sky, tiny drops turn into ice and become frozen crystals. Overnight, the world is wearing white. Why have the children been hoping for snow?

Flurry, Float, and Fly! makes the scientific delicate process of creating snow feel like magic. I loved the informative, lyrical text and the beautiful art.
