"Windy" is the first in the series of weather picture books "Weather Tales"
- a picture book on the topic of meteorology. Their goal is to educate -
bring some frequently mentioned meteorological terms closer to children, so
that they can later better understand and benefit from meteorological
information, especially in this era of increasingly obvious climate changes
and global warming.
The theme of "Windy" is wind. With the little boy Val (Wave) children learn
what wind is, where it is, what it is like, what it is for, what kinds of
winds there are...
"Windy" is not only a picture story, but also has rebuses, anagrams,
crosswords, and even a colouring book.
