Description
Breathe deep and prepare to sail like the wind, with the sweetest puff of air in all the atmosphere—from the creator of Drop: An Adventure through the Water Cycle
Look who just blew in! Meet Puff. He's air. And he's a gas! Puff has been here for billions of years, forming a blanket of protection around Earth to hold in heat and keep out cold. Puff is key to life—he's the air we breathe and the wind around us. And he's got talent! Have you ever incinerated a space rock? Traveled from the highest heights to the deepest depths of the sea? Or spun through a tornado? Puff has! He'll tell you all about it. With refreshing wit and breezy one-liners, Puff takes readers on an airy adventure through the atmosphere, earth, water, and you. Filled with irresistible artwork, funny asides, and a gentle current of kid-enticing facts, Puff is the breath of fresh air we’ve all needed.
"Fresh and breezy.” —Kirkus
"Cheerful [and] easy to understand." —Booklist
Praise for Puff: All About Air
“A white puff with a stylish quiff conducts readers through simple explanations of how our atmosphere goes everywhere—even deep into the oceans and beneath the surface of the land—to help keep Earth warm, carry droplets of water, deliver the oxygen we require and the carbon dioxide plants need to survive, and spread pollen and seeds. . . . Fresh and breezy.” —Kirkus
"This beginner science text explains in easy-to-understand terms and formatting how important air is to life on Earth, including in the sky, underground, and in the sea. . . . Puff, a cute mass of air who has been on Earth since the planet's inception [features in] cheerful illustrations." —Booklist
