ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ Summer sunlight a gentle breeze blowing the clouds It’s so quiet then
A honeybee Such a tiny insect but its beating wings make a big sound in the silence ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Then off in the distance dark clouds and LIGHTNING It’s a giant electric spark that is so hot hotter than the sun and travels so fast faster than a rocket ship that the air explodes The explosion makes a sound called THUNDER But you don’t hear the thunder right away Count the seconds after you see the lightning One two three ZZZZZZZZZ
BOOM Why do you hear thunder after you see lightning Light travels through air much faster than sound does so the lightning always reaches you first
