Its Raining Its Pouring

One of my favorite silly song books for children. My granddaughters all loved this book and it became one of their favorites..Great words about weather conditions, cute pictures. Highly recommend for 2 to 4 year olds. They'll sneak a peak at older ages too!

Rhyme, singing & seasons...all in one!

I teach Kindergarten and this is one of my kiddos FAVORITE books! I have 20 students singing this book with me and the illustrations are FABULOUS! It is a great book to go back and discover which season the illustrator has drawn and re-read the text to verify which season. my students love this so much that a copy is in the classroom library for the students to enjoy and one is at my teaching easel for easy access. You will fall in love with the illustrator.

two thumbs up

This book is great to teach children how to read . It has very good ryming and is very entrtaining.

My 18 month old LOVES it!

This is my daughters favorite book (and we have many!). She loves the rhyme and the pictures are wonderful.

My toddler's favorite book - great illustrations!

With repeated readings, the strange rhymes in this book have become a fixture in our home. Our 20 month-old loved it immediately, mostly because the illustrations are terrific. And just try reading it without singing! We've since bought other paperbacks from Whispering Coyote Press (see Iza Tapini) that are just as popular with our little guy. He prefers realistic drawings with good detail, and these deliver. They are also very well produced, with a glossy finish highlighting parts of the artwork and sturdy paper.
