Recommended by Jodi Kodesh

As a mom and meteorologist, I am wholeheartedly impressed with Bree Sunshine Smith’s ability to weave true weather knowledge and fun facts into the beautifully illustrated pages of her book. Wally Takes a Weather Walk is the perfect first weather book for children to explore the seasons and all of the unique tidbits of information that accompany them. My young son especially appreciates the bonus weather activities that are provided in her book through its QR code. Brilliant, educational, and entertaining! (from Amazon)

Engage with the wonderful world of sunshine, rainbows, thunder, and snow as you learn fun facts with Wally! A first weather book for toddlers. Wally Takes a Weather Walk teaches toddlers the science behind what they see outside. What is wind? Why are there two rainbows? What makes snowflakes unique? Follow inquisitive Wally as he walks through summer, fall, winter, and spring, picking up facts about the seasons and weather conditions as he interacts with the natural world. Each page is a chance to spark curiosity around the magic waiting just beyond your front door. • A RAINBOW ASSORTMENT OF STEM FACTS: What does a toddler love more than asking “Why?” Here, weather questions are answered with scientific facts about each season. • A LIGHTNING-SMART AUTHOR: The only weather book for toddlers written by an Emmy Award–winning broadcast meteorologist, Bree Sunshine Smith (real name), accredited by the National Weather Association and the American Meteorological Society. • SUN, SNOW, AND ALL FIVE SENSES: A whimsical story helps toddlers stay engaged as they use all five senses to leap into a pile of leaves, taste snowflakes on their tongue, and spot a double rainbow!
