Weather or Not is for readers aged 9-90, including those who go out to sea in ships - and those who love the Shipping Forecast. This is a book about the rise of Global Warming seen through the eyes of Wendy, a young girl snatched from the roof of the Exeter Weather Station by German Bight, only to be captured and imprisoned in the dark, unwholesome dungeons of Heligoland - a cloud-castle situated at the heart of a LOW barely rising above the Irish Sea - the home of the Foul Weather-Makers. Then, as she uses the Jet Stream, we follow Wendy on a journey to Beaufort - a towering white Cumulus Cloud situated above the White Cliffs of Dover where the Fair Weather-Makers like Faroes, Fair Isle, Fastnet and Nanny Dover dwell. A magical weather book gives power to whoever opens it to create Extreme Weather. Wendy is sent down again to Exeter, to warn the Mortals about all the changes that need to be made urgently to save Planet Earth.
