A story about What causes a hurricane?
for your Preschooler.
Flicker Sparkleaf stands on the sand. She sees turquoise waves. She hears crabs clap. She smiles at the big ocean.
Ember Flare flutters in the salty breeze. He flaps his bright wings. He giggles at the clapping crabs.
A bright pink seashell sits on the sand. It glows in the sunshine. It hums softly when the wind blows.
Flicker Sparkleaf feels the wind grow stronger. She holds her hair back. She wonders why the air is so wild.
Ember Flare sniffs the salty air. He feels raindrops on his snout. He whispers, "Something big is coming!"
A playful crab clicks its claws. The wind blows sand around its tiny legs. It scuttles to find a snug, sandy nook.
Flicker Sparkleaf points to the whirling clouds. She says, "The ocean’s smile is too warm. That makes big storms called hurricanes."
Ember Flare nods with wide eyes. He says, "We should find a cozy place to wait. Let’s be safe together!"
