The Cloud Book


Bibliographic Information: DePaola, T. (1975). The Cloud Book. New York: Holiday House.

Brief Annotation: The Cloud Book is an informative book that describes the three different types of clouds, and the beliefs there once was on clouds. It is very informational.

Genre: Nonfiction

Grade Level: Pre.K- 3

Readers who will like this: Children who are interested in clouds; Children who are learning about clouds or weather.

Response/Rating: 2; While this book is very nicely written and has excellent depictions of clouds, I found it a bit boring. It helps in describing different types of clouds and beliefs on them, but there was no climax in the story and no excitement.

One question you would ask before a read aloud: What do you know about clouds? What is a cloud?
