Page 2 - A Party for Clouds: Thunderstorms

P. 2

To my sweet Tori and my one-hundred-pound Bernese mountain dog, Keana, who are
snuggled in with me every night we have thunderstorms. You remind me why I want to
help kids (and dogs!) understand weather so that it is Not So Scary. —B.J.

For Belinda, Carol, and Emily who saw me as a good fit for this series, even without
knowing my appreciation for a good thunderstorm! —R.K.
