Why this book counts
- Earth Science
- Engineering & Technology

Cece Loves Science and Adventure turns a troop camping trip and an approaching thunderstorm into a chain of practical STEM decisions. Meteorology, measurement, shelter design, and route calculation determine how Cece and her friends get back safely.
The science inside
- Weather & Climate
- Scientific Discovery & Careers
- Engineering & Design
- Ecosystems
Your child will meet:
- The delay between lightning and thunder can provide evidence about a storm's distance, but shelter should be sought immediately.
- Maps, landmarks, distance, and measured observations help a group make safer navigation decisions.
- An emergency shelter is an engineering response to weather, available materials, time, and safety constraints.
