Tornado Chasers (Paperback)

While most people in the path of dangerous weather choose to hide and take shelter, tornado chasers instead run toward danger. Specially trained meteorologists use scientific equipment to follow dangerous thunderstorms in pursuit of learning more about tornadoes. This book will teach young readers all about how this deadly job--and hobby--can provide scientists with important data to predict tornadoes. Stunning photographs and accessible text will capture the interest of reluctant readers as they learn the importance of this risky work.
