K-3Mad Scientist Academy series.
Following the hijinks in Dinosaur Disaster, Dr. Cosmic teaches his young monster students about weather phenomena. When Dr. Cosmic's inventions malfunction at their school, the class gets an up-close look at what causes various types of severe weather. The comic-book layout is well suited to the goofy nature of the story and helps make the hard science easily digestible.
