Web Site: The Weather Dude


Title:               The Weather Dude
Category:       Web site
Grade:            K-5
Author:          Nick Walker
Illustrator:      N/A
Publisher:       Small Gate Media
Date:               2010
Pages:             N/A

Summary:     
This site contains extensive information on just about every aspect of weather kids could want to know about.  Much of it is based around songs from Walker’s CD; unfortunately, only brief clips of the actual songs can be listened to on the website.  .

Review:
The information is written in kid-friendly terms and includes some photographs.  Walker also includes links to other weather sites for both children and adults, and other resources like books, past weather forecasts and weather folklore.  The site can be difficult to navigate in places.
