What is Hear the Wind Blow about?

What can the wind do? Starting as a gentle breath, it stirs grass, rustles leaves and sets branches swaying. As its strength increases, the wind shapes waves, bends trees and builds towards a powerful hurricane. Through lively free verse and vivid illustrations, this book introduces the Beaufort wind scale and shows how we can recognise wind by the changes it makes in the world around us. A clear science note, glossary and wind-scale chart help readers explore this invisible force further.
