《The Lightning Catcher》是Clare Weze所著的一本科幻冒險兒童小說，適合9至12歲的讀者。故事講述男孩Alfie隨家人搬到偏遠村莊Folding Ford後，發現這裡天氣極為怪異：夏天樹上有霜凍、花園水桶中有小龍捲風、某些地方只下雨不淋濕周圍等。Alfie和他的朋友Sam對這些怪異現象感到好奇，開始調查村裡最怪異的科學家Nathaniel Clemm的庭院。在稍微闖入後，他發現一個神祕的盒子，打開它後釋放出一個閃著電光、敏捷且神秘的生物Whizzy。這個生物帶來許多麻煩和危險，Alfie因此被誤解和指責。他必須找到化解風暴和說服村民相信這一切的方式。小說結合了奇幻與現實，描繪Alfie在新環境中的適應、面對偏見、與家人間的成長，還穿插了有關氣象、生物和電學的知識。全書節奏緊湊，情節充滿想像力與懸念，同時探討友情、身份認同和家庭關係，是一部寓教於樂的精彩中級讀物.'This exciting, science-packed novel is a cracking read and bursts with action, warmth and humour' - BookTrust Great Books Guide 2021'This is great fun; an energetic middle-grade debut with a fresh contemporary feel and a good dash of Stranger Things' - The BooksellerAlfie has noticed a few things since his family moved to Folding Ford.
