In this poetic exploration of longitude and weather, with bright and detailed paintings of seventeen different places, Marilyn Singer and Frané Lessac show us what's happening from the poles to the equator--all on the same day in March.
This beautiful and accessible picture book explores how on the same day that it's icy cold in the Artic, it's foggy in Louisiana, sunny in Barbados, and blowing wild winds called willy-willies in Austrailia...
"A meteorological trip around the globe, pointing out the drastically different weather conditions that can occur in various places, all on the same day." (Publishers Weekly)
"Classes engaged in units on weather or world geography will find this book most interesting. Others will enjoy the repetition, the detailed illustrations, and the tiny taste of faraway places. A useful and engaging addition." (School Library Journal)
