I Face the Wind by Vicki Cobb
2.0
Cobb, Vicki, and Julia Gorton. I Face the Wind. New York: HarperCollins, 2003. Print. 40 p.
In an informational book about the wind, very young readers are presented with information, activities, and cartoon illustrations about wind. A figure of young girl is the “guide” in this text, she conducts the experiments, and is featured on each page. Activities for children to complete to learn more about the wind and air are: “weighing” the air using balloons and a clothes hanger, “catching” the wind in an empty plastic bag, and making air molecules move by waving a book in the air. These easy to do activities make this book a good read for the very young learning the concept of wind.
