This is so brief it's almost harder to review than a book for an older audience would be. With little to judge, we just have a few snappy sentences, leading to the sensible warning to stay in when there's a heatwave, and some very suitable photos. This really is the basics – a 'my first bad weather' book, although as it's in a set of six it might not literally end up as your first. I normally prefer such sets to be one book and not multiple, costly titles, but this is for the tenderest of wrists, so I'll let it pass.

Heat Waves by Trudy Becker

This is a short, sweet to the point book about heat waves for the budding scientist in your family.
It tells about the effects of heat waves, what to do in a heat wave and how to stay safe in a heat wave.
There is a nice glossary in the end of the book.
I recommend this book for the school library.
