He dons slicker and galoshes in the first book to parade joyfully to do jumping, hopping, all in yellow through puddles with rain feet.' [2]
This is a short and sweet board book about enjoying the rain! [3]
This book is quite short. It makes a great read-aloud for Baby and is very interactive with onomatopoeia, action words, and descriptions that activate multiple senses. That’s quite a feat for a simple board book with no more than five words on each of its ten pages! Very simple book for the little one. This book is good to encourage the children to be confidence to play with themselves. [4]
