The Weather Maker

This is a rewritten version of a story that was the first I ever wrote, back when I was just 11 years old! It is a story about a boy with genius parents who invent a machine that is able to manipulate the weather, and it is gifted to him for his birthday. Whoever is in control of it has absolute dominion over mankind and his property. However, when a jealous sibling intervenes and unleashes something far beyond their control, they enter a fight for their lives against the forces of nature. Will the boy be able to hold a family falling apart at the seams together, and more importantly, will they make it out alive? Read on and find out!
