Zeke the Weather Geek: There's a Lizard in My Blizzard
Clomp Clomp Clomp
1 Cloudy with a Chance of Flurries Sunday afternoon Hey Zeke wait up Zeke's little brother Bub was chasing him down Pine Street Clomp Clomp Clomp Bub stomped along the sidewalk in his dinosaur boots Zeke couldn't wait for Bub He was tracking a snow cloud on Whirlwind his weather scooter The dark cloud was moving fast I need to take a picture for the contest Zeke shouted A picture of what Bub shouted back Winter I'm going to get a picture of the first snowflake of the year
Bub asked too many questions Six year old brothers never fail to annoy Zeke's curly red hair puffed out like a cloud He liked having hair that told the weather The wetter the air the frizzier his hair I want to see the snowflake too Why did Bub always have to do everything that Zeke did Then hurry up Clomp Clomp Clomp Bub's dinosaur boots were no match for a snow cloud Clomp Clomp Clomp
The Winter Photo Contest happened every December in Miss Li's fourth grade class Zeke had wanted to win it ever since first grade His friends called him Zeke the Weather Geek He was proud of that nickname But what he really wanted was to be a Weather Warrior like his idol WXYZ TV Chief Meteorologist Freeze Jones Weather Warriors stay one step ahead of the weather They're able to warn people about changes before they happen They don't miss predicting a hard frost and letting the pumpkins die in the school garden like he did Zeke still felt terrible about that PHOTO CONTEST To prove he was a real Weather Warrior Zeke needed an awesome photo of winter weather for the contest Let the other kids take pictures of ski slopes or hot cocoa He wanted his photo to show the awesomeness of a snowflake falling from the sky
