Little Raindrop is a beautifully illustrated story told in verse. It tells the story of a little raindrop that is blown from a tree branch into a stream and subsequently carried off across the sea. Eventually, the little raindrop is lifted to the sky and blown into the mountains where it falls as a snowflake. It remains frozen on a mountain top until the springtime sun rises and sets it free.
Little Raindrop is a warm and cheerful book with a clear positive message. It is also educational, teaching children about the water cycle, without any sort of lecture. The soothing poetic rhythm makes it suitable as a bedtime story, or to be read aloud in a preschool or kindergarten class setting. It could also be read in an elementary school setting when discussing the water cycle. The short and simple text combined with clear illustrations also makes it a great read for those wishing to teach their children English as a second language.
Little Raindrop will make a great addition to any home or school library. And if you are looking for a gift for a child you know, Little Raindrop will make a great birthday gift too.
