Title is terribly misleading


Can it Really Rain Frogs: The World's Strangest Weather Events
by Spencer Christian (former Good Morning America weatherman)


Yes, it can rain frogs, and snails, and snakes. But if you're hoping to read more about weird weather events, you're in for a disappointment. This book is mainly about weather - thunderstorms, hurricanes, etc. There are tips on how you can become a weather forecaster and some complicated activities to try, but the weird facts are few and far between. There are too many statistics, the illustrations are all in black and white, and there are no photographs. Not recommended.
