New ed. (1996)
(4) K-3 Step into Reading series. Illustrated by Allen Garns. This easy reader presents very basic information about tornadoes. The text is accessible, with a friendly narrative style that occasionally verges on glib ("Tornadoes can even rip somebody's clothes off") or babyish ("Tornadoes can make a loud, scary noise like a million buzzing bees"). This edition is newly illustrated with impressionistic paintings and occasional photos.
