There are four chapters to this nonfiction book: clouds, water vapor, condensation, and stormy weather. Each page has several pages and photographs to go along with the text. It is a very simple look at the formation of clouds. There are several text features that are used as well as QR codes and a website at the front of the book to find more information. I visited the website, but found the information to be sparse and more teacher and parent friendly than kid friendly.

Each page of the book takes a number from 1-10 and talks about something in nature for that number. “Here is one moon in the night sky. See the hawk flying high with its two wings spread wide.” Some pages include good to know boxes with information about the nature item on that page. The book topic is geared towards a younger age, but the amount of text on the page would make the book a better read aloud.

A nonfiction book from the series Native Americans gives us just a small overview of the Ojibwe. There are many text features used such as captions, text boxes, bold words, maps, timeline and a glossary. Each page has one to two paragraphs of information. At the end there is a few pages about their fight for their land.

What can you make? This book has colorful illustrations and rhyming text. It encourages exploration and creating whatever you can think of with the objects around you. It ends with the girl building a playground for all of the neighbors to share.

A nighttime city storm creates a beautiful lullaby. The rhythmic text soothes the worried child in the story making the storm not as scary as he thinks it is. And finally it soothes the child to sleep.

The illustrations in this book are vibrant and flow beautifully with the text.
