What turns a towering thunderstorm into a tornado-making supercell?

I am a Tornado Cloud takes young readers inside a powerful rotating storm to discover how changing winds, rising air, rain, hail, and pressure can come together to form a tornado.

Told from the cloud's point of view, this dramatic science adventure follows a thunderstorm as it grows, begins to rotate, develops a funnel, and reaches toward the ground. Along the way, readers learn fascinating facts: a supercell does not always produce a tornado, a funnel cloud is not yet a tornado, and dangerous winds can extend beyond the funnel we can see.

Clear explanations make complex weather science approachable, while vivid language captures the tension and wonder of an extraordinary storm. The book also introduces meteorologists, radar monitoring, tornado safety, and the other dangers that can remain even after a tornado disappears.

Part of the I Am a Cloud series, I am a Tornado Cloud is an engaging introduction to supercells and tornado formation for curious children, weather enthusiasts, classrooms, and family reading.

Step into the storm-and meet the cloud behind one of nature's most powerful events.
