Book Overview

A hurricane is a massive, dangerous storm. Its clouds carry trillions of gallons of water that can dump a year's worth of rain in a single day. Learn how the most massive, destructive storm on Earth forms with this inventive new series!

"Text and illustrations encourage a child's curiosity by providing real meteorological facts while using the look and rhythm of a picture book to keep them engaged." School Library Journal, STARRED REVIEW

Howling wind rips away roofs and topples trees.
Rising water floods streets,
and pounding waves slam sandy beaches.

HURRICANE!

A hurricane isn't a surprise. It's a storm that calls ahead and lets you know it's coming. By the time a full-blown hurricane is ripping off roofs and flooding streets, scientists are on a first-name basis with it. They know its history and can trace its path across the ocean.

Before It Was a Hurricane starts at the peak of the action-the chaos and power of a hurricane at full strength-before stepping backward through time. Follow its four-thousand-mile journey from a hot desert breeze to the most destructive storm on Earth.

Includes fold-out pages to see HUGE images of a hurricane in action!
