Where does weather actually come from? This See Inside flap book answers by letting a child open the sky. Lift over 80 flaps to peer inside a thundercloud, follow the path of a hurricane across the page and visit the coldest place on Earth, touring land, sea and skies to find out what is really going on up there.

The flap is the whole trick of the series: it turns a fact into a discovery. A child who lifts a cloud to find the lightning inside has asked the question before the book answers it, which is why the answer sticks. Alongside the storms sit pages on the seasons, world climates, the water cycle, winds and climate change, the exact ground a school geography curriculum will walk later.

Sixteen sturdy board pages by Katie Daynes, illustrated by Russell Tate, for curious readers aged six and up. Shelve it beside See Inside Castles and See Inside the Ancient World, both also at Stellar Luxe, and the collection starts answering how the whole world works.
