[The Storm Makers][1] is exiting with the emotions played by the characters and how they come to the understanding of what it means to be important and to feel important.  It is a great middle school book and will definitely appeal to both boys and girls.   It is the destructive weather events that makes the book a great topic for today’s global warming discussions.  Great illustrations portray certain events, enhancing the story line.
