Storm

by W. Nikola-Lisa
illustrated by Michael Hays

Atheneum 1993

A storm moves in from the hills. Lightning flashes, thunder rumbles. A farmer and his children watch as it sweeps into the valley, surrounds them, and rushes off again.

Poetic word pictures and magnificent paintings bring to life the wonder of a summer storm.
