FOR THE INQUISITIVE

The Secret World of Weather by Tristan Gooley

In this eye-opening trove of outdoor clues, groundbreaking natural navigator Tristan Gooley turns his keen senses to the weather.

The Experiment Publishing, $21.95.

Brilliant Maps for Curious Minds by Ian Wright

Become enthralled by this one-ofa-kind atlas of 100 full-color, infographic maps. Each one reveals something about the world you’ve never considered before. This visual, trivia-filled offering will get teens thinking outside the box. The Experiment Publishing, $19.95.

The Illustrated Book of Loaded Language by Ali Almossawi & Alejandro Giraldo

The creators of An Illustrated Book of Bad Arguments return with a desperately timely guide to rhetoric. In this adorably illustrated book, old Mr. Rabbit is your guide to many examples of loaded language. He mines real reporting to unmask rhetoric that shifts blame, erases responsibility, plays on fear, or rewrites history—subtly or shamelessly. It takes a long pair of ears to hear what’s left unsaid—but when the very notion of truth is at stake, listening for “spin” makes all the difference. The Experiment Publishing, $16.95. continued on page 10 >
