This was a beautiful hardcover book that I owned in the mid-1980\u2019s. It was probably published sometime between the mid-70s and mid-80s. It may have been a small printer, or art book type thing. The size was probably 9x12 or a little larger, maybe 1\/2\u201d thick. If I remember correctly, it had a tan canvas-type cover, and a slide-in box that the book came in.<\/p>\n
The artwork in the book was beautiful. It may have been acrylics or oils, or some type of print work. On each page was a description of wind force. If I remember correctly, the first page talked about when there is no wind, the next page when there is a light breeze, and so on. In the end there is a full hurricane. The book is nonfiction (and I found it very boring as a young child). Each page shows the same location \u2014 with some grass, people, trees, sky, and the ocean \u2014 as the wind increases. I believe there was even a description of wind speed on each page. \u00a0The language was simple and descriptive. It said things like \u201cNow there is a light breeze. The leaves on the trees move a little bit. When the wind is like this...\u201d etc. One page mentioned that this is a good wind speed to fly a kite, another mentioned that the waves start to have small white tips. There are no characters, no plot\/story, just information about wind.
