Cloudy Day Sunny Day

by Donald Crews

Book Overview

The day is gray and cloudy. It's a good day to snuggle up with a book, a fine day for make-believe, until . . . the sun bursts through the clouds! Now it's a great day to fly a kite, the perfect day to ride a bike. No matter what the weather, each new day is a fresh opportunity to stretch and to explore. Caldecott Honor recipient Donald Crews celebrates the familiar activities that keep two siblings and their parents busy--and happy--from sunrise...

Okay Book for Reading Practice - a review of "Cloudy Day, Sunny Day"

This book is listed as a Level One reader but I don't think it is really one for beginning readers. While the sentences are pretty simple, the vocabulary is a little more advanced than one might find in the `Bob Books' series for example. Words included in this book are: cloudy, gloomy, make-believe, painting, scream, and busy. Still, for beginners with a little bit more experience it makes for nice practice. The story is simple, dealing with the fact that children can have fun regardless of the weather. Four Stars. [B-]. One sentence per page. Fairly simple vocabulary, but probably not for readers that are just getting started. Drawings are nice.
