Media Reviews
This first-rate book highlights the beauty and wonder of rain--a seemingly commonplace occurrence--and shows its effects upon the rest of the natural world...Sayre has created a poetic atmosphere, using rhyming words ( Raindrop spangles/mark angles. ) and her vibrant, close-up photographs, which effectively complement the narrative and will engage children and adults alike...This attractive work is also ideal for read-alouds and an easy entry for students delving into nonfiction reading, especially in poetry or science units. This excellent title will transform how readers think about rain.--School Library Journal *STARRED REVIEW
