On the Same Day in March: A Tour of the World's Weather Paperback - 2001
by Marilyn Singer; Frane Lessac (Illustrator)
March is a dynamic time throughout the world. On the same day that it's icy cold in the arctic, it's foggy in Louisiana and sunny in Barbados. This eagerly anticipated companion book to the successful "Nine O'Clock Lullaby" uses poetic text and rich, full-color illustrations to explain the connection between longitude and weather.
First line
From the rear cover
Polar bears ride on Artic ice.
People in French cafes turn up
their faces to the sun.
Hailstones roll over Indian hillsides.
Rain makes a river in Kenya.
On the same day that it's icy cold in the Artic, it's foggy in Louisiana, sunny in Barbados, and blowing wild winds called willy-willies in Austrailia. In this poetic exploration of longitude and weather, with bright and detailed paintings of seventeen different places, Marilyn Singer and Frane Lessac show us what's happening from the poles to the equator-- all on the same day in March.
