Description: The series teaches science facts through thrilling adventures. This volume explores tornadoes — massive natural disasters that cause tremendous loss of life and property. Through the exciting adventures of survival girl Pipi, mixed-heritage Native American boy Ashu, and tornado-chasing storm hunter Dr. Teu, the story delivers rich, accurate information about tornadoes. Readers will learn how tornadoes form, how powerful they can be, how to respond to them, how their intensity is classified, and other facts currently known — as well as ongoing research on tornadoes. Enjoy even more upgraded fun and information, brought to life through friendly, dynamic artwork.
The story follows Pipi, who is traveling across the American Great Plains. She happens to meet Ashu, a mixed-heritage Native American boy, and together they experience terrible weather — thunder, lightning, and even hail.
