Ohio Thunder Hardcover - 2006 - 1st Edition

by Denise Dowling Mortensen; Kate Kiesler (Illustrator)


Summary

ZAP!
One hundred million volts.
Cloud to ground advancing bolts.

Lyrical verse and stunning illustrations vividly bring to life the speed and drama of a summer storm on a midwestern farm. Gorgeous paintings depict blackened skies above vast stretches of farmland, long tracts of tall corn, and brightly colored barns, but also add subtext to the story, showing two farm boys and their father reacting to the sudden shift in the weather. This remarkable pairing of word and pictures conveys a sense of wonder about the natural world and makes for a picture book any child who has ever been frightened by a storm will respond to.
