Recenzii

The Toy and the Twister is a colorful adventure into the heart of a tornado that will take the fear out of a terrifying situation and help keep kids safe!”
—Andrea Beaty, author of Rosie Revere, Engineer

"Although the main story is a charming adventure, The Toy and the Twister is a deliberately crafted educational tool that parents can use to help their children understand how to prepare for hazardous weather, and what to do when caught in a dangerous storm. Highly recommended."
The Midwest Book Review

“This whimsical story about something most kids fear provides an important opportunity for children and parents to discuss and prepare for weather hazards.”
—Walker Ashley, Associate Professor of Meteorology, Northern Illinois University
 
“The characters are adorable and the story is creative. I see this book being useful for elementary schools and STEM education.”
—Evelyn Lorence, Head of Youth and Teen Services, Sycamore Public Library
