SUPERFOLK SAYS:
“The sky is free to look at, day or night. Everyone has equal access and its always right there. But it is different every single time we look up. Learning how to read the sky can help you plan your day, keep you dry and its really enjoyable”.

ABOUT THIS BOOK:
THE CLOUD COLLECTOR’S HANDBOOK fits into pockets, allowing cloudspotters to identify cloud formations anytime and anywhere. All the common cloud types are represented, as are many of the rare ones, each fully described and illustrated with a range of photographs. Not only is THE CLOUD COLLECTOR’S HANDBOOK an invaluable resource for anyone who wants to be able to identify and understand every cloud that floats by, it also caters for the competitive cloudspotter. Points are awarded for each cloud type identified – the rarer the cloud, the greater points – and there’s space to fill in where and when it was sighted.
Beautifully designed, in colour throughout, and full of the humour that made THE CLOUDSPOTTER’S GUIDE so engaging, the HANDBOOK is the essential reference for anyone with their head in the clouds.
