Seymour Simon

Our second graders are reading Wild Weather by Seymour Simon this week in their anthologies.  He is one of my favorite nonfiction authors.  He has his own website where you can find new books to buy, use his online science dictionary, and even write to him on his blog!

The Weather's Changing!

The weather is changing.  The days are short so it gets dark pretty early.  The air is turning colder and colder.  We might even have some wild weather heading our way.  So here's a rainbow of books all about the weather that you might like to read.  The first book, Wild Weather, is a book from one of my favorite nonfiction authors, Seymour Simon.  Our second graders are going to be reading this book in their anthologies as a part of Unit 3.  I'll tell you more about Seymour Simon in the next post!
