About this product

Product Information

In an alternate universe not unlike our own, Thermo the Flying Thermometer is the creation of Dr. Emmanuel Key, a scientist studying climate change on the island of Hawaii. In this full color-illustrated story, middle grade readers follow Thermo's travels to discover the wonders of Earth's atmosphere, battling forces of nature such as Twisto the Tornado, Phoon the Hurricane and Skates the Ice Monster. Thermo finds himself in the middle of actual historical weather events, learning how weather works, and discovering that nature is not the real enemy. Instead, he is forced to battle an unnatural malevolent force in the atmosphere that is bringing out the worst in nature and threatening mankind. Written by a thirty-year veteran of The Weather Channel, Thermo's story introduces readers to the basics of meteorology and climate change. Praise for World of Thermo: Thermometer Rising: "One of the biggest questions I get is, 'How do I talk to my kids about climate change?' This book is the answer - it takes us on an entertaining trip through time, to meet the scientists who've studied our planet and what makes it tick." - Dr. Katharine Hayhoe, Director of Climate Science Center, Texas Tech University "One of the great ironies of human-caused climate change is that those who had the least role in causing it-our children-will bear the brunt of its devastating impacts if we fail to act in time. It is urgent that they be educated about the threat and that their voices be heard. World of Thermo uses engaging magical characters to bring the science alive, and inform while entertaining." - Dr. Michael E. Mann, Distinguished Professor of Atmospheric Science, Penn State University, and co-author of "The Madhouse Effect" and "The Tantrum that Saved the World" "World of Thermo is a highly entertaining and superbly illustrated look at climate change and meteorology by an exceptionally well-qualified atmospheric scientist. Guy Walton takes readers on a wonderfully imaginative ride through climatological history as well as providing a learned peek into the disquieting future." - H. W "Buzz" Bernard, author of "Eyewall," "Supercell," and "Cascadia" "The saga of global climate change is full of twists and turns, invisible agents, all-too-human actors, and some very complex science. In World of Thermo, meteorologist/writer Guy Walton and illustrator Alyssa Josue turn this journey into a compelling tale for bright young readers that brings more than a century of climate science and awareness to life." - Robert Henson, author of "The Thinking Person's Guide to Climate Change"
