I Am Wind: An Autobiography

Told in Wind’s first-person voice, this science book explains why air moves and the many ways wind affects the world. It covers forms including katabatics, hurricanes, and tornadoes, and considers wind’s influence on landforms such as sand dunes as well as wind power. Diagrams and fact-filled sidebars expand on the discussion, while illustrations address wind’s historical and emotional effects on people. An index and contents page round out the book.
