Reviews
"A MUST READ for any child that has expressed interest in weather or science. Period." --Dr. Marshall Shepherd, former President of AMS, Host of Wx Geeks, and Professor at the University of Georgia "I wish Janice Dean had written this book when my sister and I worried every summer afternoon about tornadoes on the eastern plains of Colorado. Janice has a way of informing without scaring, and the illustrations are fun for kids and adults alike." --Dana Perino, Co-Host of Fox News Channel's The Five and former White House Press Secretary for President George W. Bush "Freddy the Frogcaster does it again! My kids and I love how Janice Dean paints the atmospheric adventure while teaching us how to be weather prepared." --Bob Van Dillen, Meteorologist for HLN's Morning Express with Robin Meade "Freddy's a treat and a warm, well-weathered soul! Thank you Janice, for keeping the forecast real AND really fun to learn about!" --Neil Cavuto, Senior Vice President, Managing Editor, and Anchor for Fox News Channel and Fox Business Network; Anchor of FNC's Your World and Cavuto on Business and FBN's Cavuto "Children interested in weather will love reading about Freddy and the Terrible Tornado. Janice has done a superb job; it is a fun read, teaches science, and gives comfort knowing you will be safe during a tornado if you understand severe weather safety." --James Spann, Chief Meteorologist for ABC 33/40, AMS CBM Recipient, past NWA Broadcaster of the Year, and Host of the podcast WeatherBrains "In a lighthearted yet informative way, Freddy the Frogcaster shows us what the moments before severe weather strikes are like for meteorologists and emergency personnel. I'd like to take a ride in the Tadmobile!" --Dr. Reed Timmer, Storm Chaser and Meteorologist
