The creators of this exhibit are first year undergraduate students at Georgia Tech. This exhibit was created for a Children’s Literature English 1102 class with the theme "The History and Rhetoric of Science Writing for Children." The assignment was to create an online Omeka Exhibit on any topic in relation to children’s literature. This group decided to focus on the illustrations of extreme weather conditions over time and comparing/contrasting how the depictions have changed.
