      Gr 3-6-This series examines the profound impact of climate change on the different regions of America. Each title sets the tone with images and descriptions of ecological disasters like Hurricane Ida, the Mosquito fire, and Hurricane Harvey. The author delineates the regions' typical climates and the shifts occurring due to climate change. These include hotter temperatures, drying lakes, droughts, and more dangerous storms. The author explains the difference between climate and weather and how human-made climate change creates a chain reaction leading to wildfires and mudslides. The books also describe the impact on the region's economic welfare. Readers will learn about measures being taken to stop climate change but will notice the lengthy list of solutions not yet being implemented. Back matter includes a quiz, glossary, additional resources, and index. VERDICT Eye-opening and informative. Highly recommended.
