Thunderstorm follows the course of a storm through
midwestern farm country minute-by-minute, hour-by-hour, from
late morning into late afternoon. As always with Arthur
Geisert, it is a meticulously executed and visually stunning
piece of work. Other than the timeline that runs along the
bottom border of the illustrations, there is no text, and
the illustrations are continuous. Through keen
observation, Geisert beautifully captures the nuances and
details of a midwestern thunderstorm, from the ever-changing
color of the sky, to the actions of the human inhabitants,
to the reactions of the natural world to the wind and rain.
America's heartland is somewhat unfamiliar territory in the
realm of picture books, but in Thunderstorm, Geisert
has provided readers with valuable, breathtaking insight
into one of its most natural occurrences.
