This book was very good

Tao, age 7: I like that when he talks about his experiences he makes it seem exciting. And I like the seven storm night part, that he tried to take a picture but he didn't, but I still like it. His mom: I really like this book. It has vivid descriptions of the life of Warren Faidley, a storm photographer. It talks about how he photographs lightning, tornadoes, and hurricanes. It includes many details of his daily life, such as visits to weather centers, navigating unmarked farm roads to chase tornadoes, and even the many oil changes needed for his specially outfitted vehicle, "Shadow Chaser." Along the way, we learn about the science of storms as well. My only criticism is that some of the descriptions of events are a bit confusing, and it would be nice if the photos had captions. Overall a very exciting book combining science, adventure, and biography.

A smaller "Strom Chaser"

This book is a beautiful summery of Faidley's "Storm Chaser" for kids. The photos are simply breadth-taking and incredible. Most kids would be more interested in storm chasing than storms itself, but Faidley will use his wonderful photos to arouse their curiosity about the science behind our violent atmosphere. If the words can't leave them gasping awe, the photographs will.
