"When Zeke the Weather Geek wakes up on his ninth birthday, his Mood Meter is at an all-time high. This is going to be the best birthday ever, because today, he will finally be getting a Saint Bernard puppy. And on top of that, he just knows that his idea for the Winter Weather Photo Contest is a winner. But things quickly go downhill when his perfect snowflake shot for the photo contest is washed out by rain. And when his mom presents him with a cold-blooded lizard instead of a warm, cuddly dog, his Mood Meter takes a plunge to negative 100 degrees... Zeke Abramovich's Birthday is a total washout! The weather takes its own turn for the worse when a blizzard strikes the town, and the power goes out. Then it's up to Zeke and his knowledge of weather to save the day and the lizard, and to snap a unique photo that earns him the prize and the coveted title of Weather Warrior. Black-and-white art on every spread brings the story to life, adds humor, and helps support and propel readers through the story. The first title in a fun new series of early chapter books about a nine-year-old whose passion is the weather, Zeke the Weather Geek celebrates science in the real world"--Provided by the publisher.
