Cane The Weather Dog turns wild weather into standards-aligned science kids love — created by a four-time Emmy-winning Miami broadcast meteorologist and environmental geoscientist. NGSS-friendly books, free classroom resources, bulk & purchase-order ordering, and author visits in person or virtual.
SAMPLE FIGURES — replace with your real numbers before publishing.
Every book pairs a weather adventure with an earth-science concept and a safety lesson — the way a working forecaster actually explains it.
Maps to K–4 Earth’s Systems and Weather & Climate (K-ESS2, K-ESS3, 3-ESS2, 3-ESS3). A standards alignment map comes with every classroom set.
Thunderstorms, tornadoes, hurricanes, and blizzards — each story ends with exactly what to do to stay safe, in kid-friendly language.
Written by a four-time Emmy-winning meteorologist with an M.S. in Environmental Geoscience — not a stock-template kids’ book.
The Christmas Eve Blizzard won multiple national children’s-book awards — Children’s Book International, Story Monsters, and the Purple Dragonfly Book Award.

The series is written for K–4. Storm Chasing and the upcoming titles work well as read-alouds in K–2 and as independent reading with science extensions in grades 3–4.
Each title maps to NGSS Earth’s Systems and Weather & Climate strands (for example K-ESS2-1, K-ESS3-2, 3-ESS2-1, 3-ESS3-1). A printable alignment map is included free with classroom sets and in the resource pack above.
Classroom sets are priced by volume and can include matching NGSS activity packs and author-signed copies. Tell us your titles, quantities, and grade levels in the quote form and we’ll build options for you.
Virtual visits run on your preferred video platform as a live assembly with stories, a science demo, a read-aloud, and Q&A. We’ll send a simple tech checklist and pick a time that fits your schedule.
Fees vary by format (in person vs. virtual), audience size, and whether you add a book fair or class set. Submit the visit form and we’ll reply with availability and a quote — the more lead time, the better, especially around peak weather-season dates.
