Qué es un tornado? En estos tiempos de clima extremo, la informativa introducción a los tornados escrita por Gail Gibbons, recién actualizada, responde a esa pregunta y proporciona además prácticos consejos de seguridad.
Los tornados se forman cuando al aire caliente y húmedo se eleva desde el suelo y se encuentra con aire más frÃo y denso que baja hacia la tierra. Las dos corrientes de aire comienzan a arremolinarse, incorporando más y más aire hasta producir una nube en forma de embudo. Los vientos pueden girar a más de 261 millas por hora (420 kilómetros por hora)! Recién revisado y avalado por expertos en meteorologÃa de la Oficina Nacional de Administración Oceánica y Atmosférica, Tornados! es una introducción perfecta al conocimiento de ese fascinante fenómeno. Con los elogiados textos precisos e ilustraciones detalladas caracterÃsticos de Gail Gibbons, este libro contiene más de cincuenta datos sobre los tornados, entre ellos, cómo se forman, qué escala se utiliza para clasificarlos y cuáles son los lugares más seguros donde protegerse en caso de que se produzca un tornado cerca. Por sus textos sencillos y amenos para los niños, sus ilustraciones llenas de color y los claros diagramas informativos, los libros de no ficción de Gail Gibbons se consideran indispensables en cualquier colección (Kirkus Reviews). Presentan temas complejos de manera clara y accesible para los jóvenes lectores que empiezan a explorar el mundo.
