Mira Forecasts the Future

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Lissy Marlin. Mira is the psychic-abilities-lacking daughter of boardwalk fortune-teller Madame Mirabella. But when her mom gives her a pinwheel and a windsock, Mira learns that she can forecast, if nothing else, the weather. (Six weather terms are defined mid-story.) Things proceed predictably--Mira averts disaster during her town's annual surf competition--but not unpleasantly, with an assist from the lively digital art.
