Written by Cathy MacLennan
Animals frolic in sunshine, nap, then face a storm. Will they find shelter?
In a vibrant world of clucking chicks, buzzing bees, and playful cats, the day begins with joyful sounds and sunshine. As they nap under the warm rays, a sudden storm disrupts their peace. With raindrops pattering and thunder crashing, the animals must find a way to stay dry. Will the sun return to bring back their playful day? This rhythmic tale, filled with lively onomatopoeia and textured art, invites children to explore the wonders of nature and the comfort of a sleepytime ending.
What a great read-aloud, sing-aloud, shout-aloud board book this is, with its fun-to-imitate animal sounds and rhythmic rhyme. Bright yellow chicks, golden bees, and striped kitty cats play in the warm sunshine, clucking and buzzing and skitty-scatting. Then they rest, snoozy-woozy. But what is this? The pitter-patter of raindrops and the crash, bang, wallop of a storm–how will they get dry? Soon the sun and sweet breezes come out again. With wonderfully textured art as well as a sleepytime ending, children will want to read this again and again.
