Review
As a science picture book this will serve classrooms with early readers. Cloud formation, precipitation and patterns of water flow are discussed in the text and illustrated. The font size was chosen for the audience reading pleasure and the book is colorful. Several illustrations however are stilted, especially the trees. One two page spread depicting streams merging into rivers is confusing.
Children are naturally curious about weather; this book will answer some basic questions and foster continued discussion. The cost will limit the purchase of this book in libraries.
Overall Book Score: fair
