NOT JUST GOOD FOR THE KIDS, BUT FOR ALL OF US WHO ARE CLOUD WATCHERS

Any child, or, in my case, adult, who has ever watched the clouds on a summer day or evening will love this whimsical tale of imagination and dreams. The author certainly has to be one of those people and it shows in his work here and in the illustrations by Matt Mahurin. A little girl, dreaming, is able to see some wonderful things in the clouds. I suspect that a child would probably see more that most, but it certainly brought back memories of when I was a little boy gazing up at the sky. The book can well be discribed as "mellow" and certainly relaxing. This is a good one to stir the imagination of any child and it is a fun book to read with your child now and again and then go out cloud watching with them. The text is quite well done and as I said, the illustrations are beautiful. Highly recommend this one.

Relaxing and imaginative

Reading this book is as enjoyable and calming as laying back and watching the clouds themselves. Each page presents fun and imaginative ideas of what the clouds may actually be..... ice cream? a beard? mashed potatoes? Great text and illustrations. Highly recommended. My niece loves it.
