The weather is different every day. Sometimes the sky is blue and the sun is shining; sometimes the sky is filled with clouds and it's raining. And sometimes there is so much wind, you can hardly walk. In winter, when soft snowflakes fall from gray skies, you can make a snowman Weather can be fun, but it can also be dangerous, like when there's a tornado. In this book, you'll find out more about the beautiful, exciting, and dangerous sides of the weather.
An informative book filled with fun facts about the weather and nature, with beautiful photographs and playful illustrations. For children ages 5 and up.
Mack has a primitive way of drawing. He gets inspired by African art and the paintings of the Australian aboriginals. Both create an immense power by simplifying shapes. Mack wants to combine that powerful simplification with a subtle sense of humour.
"In my books I try to teach children something in a funny way," Mack says. "If I draw a penguin, it doesn't matter to me that much how pretty he is or how good of an swimmer he is. What I want to show the most is how baggy he stands on the ice and how funny his walk is. That funny bagginess is what I try to catch in a couple of lines. Only when children can laugh about it, I think to myself: 'Yes, I did it'."
