A storm is brewing. From the first puff of wind to a howling gale, this beautiful non-fiction picture book offers a deeply researched exploration of the effects of wind and weather, from CBCA award-winning creators Claire Saxby and Jess Racklyeft.
It begins with a puff. Then another. A flutter, a ripple, a shiver show where the breeze blows. Tiny water drops join and grow until they are too heavy to stay aloft. Lightning cracks and thunder bellows. The storm is here.
An evocative exploration of the birth of a thunderstorm and the effects of wind and weather on the natural environment. In the vein of Iceberg, Tree and Volcano - combining deep scientific research, lyrical language and stunning illustrations - Storm is the next exploration of the natural world from the CBCA award-winning team of Claire Saxby and Jess Racklyeft.
Perfect for:
- Anyone who's ever wondered how a storm forms
- Schools looking for engaging illustrated non-fiction
- Parents of children who love weather, science and the natural world.

Claire Saxby has lived in many places through Australia and beyond. That meant many houses and schools, but also introduced her to many people, landscapes and ways of being. She writes about nature, about history and more. Claire's work has won several awards including CBCA Picture Book of the Year for Iceberg and an Environment Award for Children's Literature for Tree (both illustrated by Jess Racklyeft), CBCA Honour Book, a NSW Premier's Literary Award, a SCBWI Crystal Kite Award, an Educational Publishing Award and the Whitley Award multiple times. She is widely curious about just about everything and passionate about encouraging curiosity and wonder. www.clairesaxby.com
Jess Racklyeft creates a variety of illustrated things - picture books, paintings, prints, pins and cards - mainly in watercolours. She works from her Melbourne studio along Merri Creek. Her work often combines collage - either on paper or digitally assembled - and lots of ink, and for every book she tries to use a new technique or process to continue to challenge and grow, book by book. Jess worked in publishing sales for almost a decade before making the leap to full-time illustration work, and since then has won several illustration accolades including CBCA Picture Book of the Year for Iceberg and an Environment Award for Children's Literature for Tree (both written by Claire Saxby). Her work can now be found in bookshops and libraries across Australia, and her days are happily spent in a messy studio. www.jessracklyeft.com
